Our Story
From feeding the homeless to educating the next generation
WeYounite was founded on the belief that every young person deserves access to financial education, regardless of their background or zip code. Our journey began with community service—feeding the homeless and supporting those in need—which opened our eyes to the systemic challenges facing underserved communities.
Drawing on professional experience in technology (Cisco) and logistics (trucking industry), our founder recognized that financial literacy is the foundation of economic mobility. Young people in underserved communities often lack access to the money skills and entrepreneurial knowledge that can break cycles of poverty.
Today, WeYounite bridges that gap. We bring real-world financial education, hands-on entrepreneurship training, and actual investment opportunities directly into middle schools serving underserved populations. Our program is designed to be engaging, practical, and immediately applicable to students' lives.
We believe in meeting students where they are—using technology they love (like Roblox Studio), topics they care about (earning money and building businesses), and providing immediate incentives that reinforce positive behaviors. By the end of 12 weeks, students don't just understand financial concepts—they've lived them.
