Our Story
Bizbuild's story starts with a Lemonade Stand:
BizBuild is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that grew out of something simple.
Guga liked building things and talking to people. Lemonade stands turned into small projects. Small projects turned into a bigger idea.
He kept noticing the same gap.
School didn't teach the basics of business.
How to price. How to budget. How to talk to customers.
And in under-resourced communities, those chances were even harder to find.
So he started BizBuild as a place to practice, not pretend.
Pick a project. Set a goal. Make a plan.
Talk to real people. Ship something. Miss. Adjust. Try again.
It feels like a workshop more than a class.
Reps over theory.
Community over clout.
Wins are shared. Mistakes are recycled into lessons.
Students learn sales by asking for the sale.
They learn finance by making a budget and living with it.
They learn leadership by cleaning up after the event when everyone's tired.
Since September 2023, the mission has been steady and clear:
'empowering the next generation of entrepreneurs and future business people.'
BizBuild brings hands-on learning to schools and clubs, with extra focus on access.
Workshops, mentors, and materials go where they're needed most so students can start for real.
Plant the Seed.
