Designed to provide high school students with information about growing as artists, athletes or entrepreneurs, we will ask students questions related to Charleston, education and how to transform dreams into goals. Through these questions, students will become more aware of obstacles and opportunities while onlookers will observe a performance mapping of network development and potential needs of a community’s youth.
conNECKtedTOO is a project of art and culture in/with community for economic development which aims to awaken in youth a spirit of entrepreneurship while highlighting TINY Business in Charleston as a vital part of commerce and neighborhood.
The DAE Foundation’s mission is to educate and train student athletes to become skilled, effective and responsible citizens of their communities.
