About us
Most of us don't learn how money works until we're old enough to make mistakes with it. BizBuddies started with a simple idea: what if those lessons began in elementary school, taught by students young enough to make them fun?
We're a youth-led nonprofit based in Houston, Texas. Our volunteers design and run hands-on workshops where kids play with the ideas behind saving, budgeting, and running a business, then try them out for real, with paper money and classroom storefronts.
