Through a variety of programs designed to educate and empower, we provide resources and support to help young people navigate their financial futures with confidence. Our goal is not only to teach them about money management and investment strategies but also to instill a sense of entrepreneurial spirit that encourages innovation and critical thinking.

We’ll Be the Parent, Inc. is proud to announce the development of an innovative new initiative designed to inspire, educate, and empower the next generation of children in our community— the Young Entrepreneur Program (YEP)!
We are planning to make this an 8-week, 60-hour program, that is built exclusively for motivated youth ages 13–16 who are ready to explore their potential and take bold steps toward a brighter future. Through hands-on workshops, mentorship, and real-world learning experiences, YEP will introduce participants to the powerful tools of:
Financial Literacy & Wealth Building – Understanding money, debt, and credit, and how to use them wisely.
Business Formation & Strategy – Learning how to build and structure both business and personal entities.
Asset & Operations Management – Discovering how to grow, protect, and manage resources like a true professional.
Tax Preparation & Compliance – Gaining an inside look at how taxes impact individuals and businesses, and how to prepare with confidence.
YEP, is much more than just classes — it’s an experience. Participants will be paired with inspiring mentors, create their own business concepts, and even walk away with a Certificate of Completion to showcase their achievement. Unlike traditional programs, this initiative doesn’t just prepare young people for the future — it pays them to learn, ensuring that every participant values both the knowledge they gain and the effort they invest by receiving an educational stipend upon completion of the program!
At We’ll Be the Parent, Inc., we believe every child deserves the opportunity to unlock their full potential, regardless of household circumstance. YEP, is a step toward breaking cycles, building confidence, and shaping the youth in our community into a more loving and productive unit.
Coming Soon: Applications for the Young Entrepreneur Program will open in the near future. Space will be limited — and the future belongs to those who are ready to seize it.
We’ll Be the Parent, Inc. is also excited about unveiling a powerful new initiative designed to unlock creativity and amplify the voices of the next generation — the Young Published Author Program.
This one-of-a-kind program is built for aspiring young authors who dream of seeing their words in print and their stories shared with the world. Through mentorship, guided workshops, and step-by-step instruction, participants will learn the entire publishing process, from concept to creation to publication.
Participants will explore:
Creative Writing & Story Development – Building engaging stories, poems, and narratives.
Editing & Manuscript Preparation – Honing their craft with professional guidance.
Publishing Basics – Learning how publishing works, from ISBNs to formatting.
Marketing & Author Branding – Discovering how to share their voice and connect with readers.
Real-World Experience – Completing a project that could lead to an opportunity for publication.
The Young Publisher Program is more than an education — it’s an empowerment movement. Participants won’t just learn how to write; they’ll gain the confidence and tools to share their ideas with the world. At the end of the program, students will proudly walk away with a Certificate of Completion, and select works may even be considered for publication opportunities through our nonprofit network
At We’ll Be the Parent, Inc., we believe every young voice matters — and every story deserves to be heard. The Young Publisher Program will help youth turn creativity into confidence, and confidence into achievement.
Coming Soon: Applications for the Young Publisher Program will open shortly. Space will be limited, and we invite families and youth to join us in shaping the authors of tomorrow.
Our Community Connection Activities
We strongly believe in providing economic advantages to the ones who need them in our community as to provide an incentive to encourage those in states of poverty to bring the absolute best out of themselves and to genuinely explore their potential and creativity. This grant is our action in supporting our belief. This grant will be extremely limited and have planes on taking in applications as soon as summer of 2026!
Our Craig Johnson Generational Wealth Builder Grant is designed to help single-parent households acquire assets to leave to their children. Qualifying recipients will receive $10,000-15,000 USD that will be pledged to purchasing a rental property in partnership with one of our partners, that will be used as an income producing asset for the family. This property will be pledged to remain within a trust that will be managed by the heirs of the family that receives this grant. It is in honor of the brother of one of our directors who tragically lost his life due to gun violence.
"My brother left Earth without having the honor to ever be a father. With this initiative, and through his name, he can provide a huge advantage to the children who will always need one."
