With the help of the business partners, supporters, board members, educators, mentors and advocates who are part of our mission, in 2016-17 we transformed 12,000 students across 400 schools in 19 states into business professionals and entrepreneurs. It is both exciting and humbling to know that VEI has impacted so many students who have developed the skills and competencies needed to be college- and career-ready while developing and executing business innovations.
And thanks to our VEI community, we invested nearly $2 million in creating the next generation of business leaders and entrepreneurs.
As you review the many milestones of the past year at VE, we hope that you will celebrate the part you played in helping thousands of rising business leaders and entrepreneurs achieve great things.
