We invest time and money in aspiring young entrepreneurs, age 18-34, who have a great business idea, but find it difficult to obtain financing or mentoring through traditional sources. CYBF delivers our program coast to coast through a collaborative network of likeminded organizations that we call Community Partners (CPs). They are integral to our success and act as our local ‘store front’. Along with our more than 3,300 volunteers including business mentors, they champion youth entrepreneurship in their communities and directly work with young people to guide them through the entire CYBF process to obtain funding and a mentor. The CPs and their volunteer Loan Review Committee (LRC) members are essential to the entrepreneur’s success and in preventing outward migration of youth from their respective communities. Founded in 1996, CYBF has invested in more than 3,700 young people, whose businesses have generated millions in sales tax and export revenues, and created more than 17,100 new jobs.* * These figures are estimates only and based on extrapolated data from a sample survey of CYBF clients conducted in July 2009.
