Our mission remains steadfast—to ignite the entrepreneurial spirit within the next generation. Over the course of the retreat, we aim to equip these bright minds with essential business knowledge, instill the values of diversity, equity, and inclusion, and above all, nurture their resilience in the face of adversity. We firmly believe that with these skills, they can conquer any challenge and achieve their dreams.

A HUGE shoutout to the incredible individuals who made this camp possible. To the dozens of dedicated volunteers who poured their hearts and souls into this endeavor...THANK YOU. This would not have been possible without your effort. And we cannot forget the invaluable contributions of our partners—Warner Pacific University, Portland Public Schools, Reynolds School District—and every single member of the Rotary Club of Portland. Together, we have created something extraordinary.

As we reflect on the success of this year’s Enterprise Academy, we can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of excitement for what lies ahead. The years ahead promise to be even more remarkable, filled with new opportunities, fresh ideas, and the potential to transform even more young lives.

Once again, thank you to everyone who played a role in making this journey a resounding success. Together, we are shaping the future, one entrepreneur at a time.
