The Future Founders Foundation inspires low-income youth in Chicago to explore new career opportunities.  We offer programs to connect students with mentors from various professions and provide engaging project-based learning experiences for 3rd through 12th graders.  From 2005-13, our programs have served 16,500 students. This year, we are serving over 6,000 students at 50 schools.
