Where Young Ideas Become Future Businesses

The Kidpreneur Business Camp, hosted by Value Village Collective, empowers young entrepreneurs ages 7–17 across Anderson, Oconee, and Greenville, South Carolina, with the knowledge, confidence, and hands-on experience to turn their ideas into thriving businesses. Over six interactive days, campers participate in engaging, two-hour sessions that introduce entrepreneurship fundamentals in a fun and age-appropriate way. Participants learn how to develop a business idea, build a brand, identify their target customers, create marketing strategies, pitch for funding, lead with integrity, and understand how to reinvest profits to grow their business.

What makes Kidpreneur Camp unique is its focus on real-world entrepreneurial skills rarely taught in traditional K–12 classrooms. Through interactive lessons, creative projects, and practical business experiences, students gain valuable financial literacy, leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills that prepare them for success far beyond the classroom.Since launching in 2025, Kidpreneur Camp has served 47 students, helping young innovators transform creativity into confidence. At Value Village Collective, we believe entrepreneurship is more than starting a business—it's about building confidence, developing leadership, fostering creativity, and inspiring the next generation of innovators. Through Kidpreneur Camp, we're equipping young minds with the tools to dream bigger, think differently, and create opportunities that can positively impact their families and communities for years to come.
