CEOs of Tomorrow, Inc.

🐾 Our weekend was paws-itively amazing! 🐶✨

Furry friends stopped by to support our incubator students as they delved into meaningful conversations about the social issues that matter most to them. These causes will take center stage in the businesses our students are building, set to be showcased at the 13th Teen Pitch & Launch Event on Saturday, December 14th. Mark your calendars! A huge thanks to our new furry friends for lending a paw and supporting mental health along the way. 🐾
