Fun business program awaits keiki at mall
Windward Mall is seeking a few "Kid-preneurs" for its second annual "Kids, Inc." program, offering youths ages 6 to 15 a chance to set up shop in the mall.
The event is intended to promote retail entrepreneurism among youth, hosted at select Jones Lang LaSalle-managed shopping centers throughout the U.S.
Chosen participants will be part of a one-day "business showcase" July 27 at the mall’s Center Court, where they’ll learn about business, make money and, most of all, have fun.
Participants may create something from scratch, offer a service or resell a product from a wholesaler. Parental involvement should be minimal.
Submit a business plans to Windward Mall’s Facebook page by Sunday. Children 12 and younger will need a parent or guardian to submit their entry. The shopping center’s Facebook fans will vote for their favorite ideas between July 1 and 12, and 10 will be chosen. Winners will be announced July 12.
