OC Children’s Business Fair
04.28.17
The Orange County Rescue Mission is giving children an opportunity to learn the ins and outs of entrepreneurship. They'll host its second annual “OC Children’s Business Fair” on Saturday, April 29 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Rescue Mission’s Village of Hope in Tustin.
The Business Fair will feature 63 different booths, each hosted by children ages 6 - 14. Some of the participants currently live at the Rescue Mission’s Village of Hope, and others are bringing their entrepreneurial ideas from all over Orange County. The public is invited to attend the event free of charge, and can enjoy shopping at the various booths while interacting with Orange County’s youngest entrepreneurs.
“In addition to learning the basics of how to create their own business, these children are given valuable insights on important life skills, such as how to set a budget, create a business plan, and provide customer service,” says Jim Palmer, President of the Orange County Rescue Mission. “These principles provide essential building blocks that will help children understand that their dreams of success really are within reach.”
The OC Rescue Mission currently has a record-high number of children living on-site at the Village of Hope. “In recent months, we’ve received an astounding amount of support from the local community in helping provide these kids with basic necessities. Our hope is that the community will continue to give back by attending this event and supporting these children’s hard work and dedication,” Palmer says.
The OC Children’s Business Fair is being sponsored by the California Policy Center, ORCO Block & Hardscape, The Lincoln Club, Crevier Classic Cars, and several other generous donors from the local community.
