I’m currently exploring opportunities in the youth enrichment space (i.e., providers offering academic or non-academic programs to children outside of a formal school setting). I’d love the opportunity to connect with anyone who has interest or experience in this market or adjacent verticals (or even similar multi-unit service providers) and would be open to sharing some insights.

Hi ^redacted‌ - nice to meet you. We have a lot experience financing youth enrichment companies via the SBA. If you ever need help reviewing a deal, I am happy to help. We work with all the major SBA lenders. The bank pay us after your loan closes, so this is a 100% free service for you. You can email me directly at redacted or schedule a meeting with me: https://cal.com/francodeguzman/30min. Look forward to chatting!

Hey @redacted‌, I actually run youth programs across NYC currently... my programs are with major non profits, city libraries and ACS after school... I have no experience with funding, but the day to day and the actual programs I am very familiar with
