We have two phases to the company.
Our soft launch site (currently up and running) is purely a content site. It’s full of practical yet “out of the nest” ideas to grow youngsters’ wealth and encourage them to dive into investing, entrepreneurship, charitable giving and their broader economic world. It brings much-needed fun and imagination to these topics, making them relevant to kids’ lives (as well as yours).
Our full launch site, for which we’re raising our second round of funding, will be a far more robust social site focused on kids and finance. We will be partnering with financial firms and are far along in our discussions with several. We expect to be first to market in our particular sector.
