The young entrepreneurs of the Young Millionaires Program are not your average youth.

These inspiring young entrepreneurs are the future leaders of tomorrow, discovering and developing their essential skills, and learning how to continue to grow as entrepreneurs and active members of their communities.    The Young Millionaires Program recognizes the challenge youth can bring, and has created this page to advocate, assist and support our young entrepreneurs and their businesses.

The Young Millionaires Program will:

● Teach youth fundamental business skills

● Aid youth to discover and develop essential skills

● Provide opportunities to gain confidence and make connections with their peers

● Establish a sense of responsibility, independence, and perseverance

● Support youth entrepreneurs in their entrepreneurial journey

Explore Your Potential

At the Young Millionaires Program, we firmly believe that nothing is impossible.

We encourage the discovery and development of essential skills that will grow with each youth as they and their goals mature and offer a fun and safe environment for our inspired youth to reach for the stars.

Pre-registration is always welcome, with our registration officially opening in May and age-appropriate workshops beginning in June.  Youth that meet attend all workshops and submit a completed their business plan will be eligible for non-refundable grants of $150 for a sole proprietorship up to $200 for a partnership.

Youth are supported and encouraged throughout the summer by our amazing Program facilitators and Provincial Coordinator as they engage in group vending events and activities meant to inspire and motivate young minds to see the many connections between family, community and the businesses within them.

Young Entrepreneurs discover, develop and grow in Prince Edward Island.
