BUILD celebrated Black History Month by honoring and showcasing our talented students, educators, staff, and extended community for their achievements and entrepreneurial ventures. BUILDing racial equity matters. The work is rigorous, but everyone deserves a chance to have a seat at the table. Take a look!
Music helps us BUILD. Did you know that we have our own theme song? In 2021, BUILD We Must was written and performed by Najee Janey. The song shows our vision for “Generation Entrepreneur”, who values working for themselves and creating solutions to tomorrow’s problems.
The BUILD community is so dynamic. Entrepreneurship is our business and everyone’s journey is different. Watch and listen as these talented individuals speak to the impact of BUILD in their lives.
Students are the heart of BUILD. Jaquan is a student at High School for Innovation in Advertising and Media in Canarsie, Brooklyn. He is excited about being an entrepreneur because he can solve problems in his community and help people in need.
This is why Jaquan BUILDs.
At BUILD, we strive for excellence, build bridges, and value diversity. Diversity at BUILD means that our staff and community at large include people from a range of different social and ethnic backgrounds, genders, sexual orientations, etc. We aim to mirror the populations we serve as we continue this journey to giving youth across the nation the pathways to a better tomorrow. Here are some thoughts from a few of our leaders.
