As a graduate of YEBW, you are one of our most valued assets for spreading the word because sharing your first-hand experiences and stories about the week give it a personal touch a brochure cannot provide.  Help us make a difference in the lives of more high school students by setting up presentations at your school, telling your friends and family, and contributing to our social media outreach.

Investing Week

Students who have completed the first year program are able to return to YEBW the next summer.  In life, it is essential to be aware of how to appropriately manage your personal finances and plan for your future, ensuring personal economic stability. Contrary to what the economy may be doing, providing students with an immersive experience empowers them to not be at the mercy of outside forces.

Students participating in Investing Week will learn about basic investment vehicles and the principles of evaluating a potential investment. Students will also learn how to understand the financial market system and how it affects their personal and business life. Students will be assigned a role as a Junior Analyst and critically assess the benefits and strengths of individual investment vehicles.

In addition, students are afforded insight through lecture, guest speakers and discussions into the world of Investing & Financial Planning.

This opportunity provides students with an immersive experience, in which students seriously consider responsible business practices. In addition, from an entrepreneurial prospective, students have the opportunity to explore ways in which real social change is being conducted worldwide.
