P.O.O.F is an Entrepreneurship Pathway Program that provides Durham teens ages 13-17 with the opportunity to learn the skills necessary to become an entrepreneur. (P.O.O.F is a double acronym that stands for Planning Our Own Future Planning Our Own Funeral.) In 90-day phases that are offered year around, students will learn a skill or trade that will set them up for future success and give them the building blocks needed to start their own business. While the first 90 days set up the building blocks for our students they will continue learning throughout the year as our program lasts the school year and even offers a separate summer program.

Mission: is to empower teens to achieve their highest potential by inspiring an entrepreneurial mindset while dismantling labels. - Vision: Create a community of confident and skilled young entrepreneurs who are equipped to succeed in the 21st Century Global Society.
