Evansville Day School (EDS) is proud to announce the annual 4th Grade Giving Project, a unique initiative that combines entrepreneurship education with philanthropy. This project, in collaboration with Legence Bank, empowers every 4th-grade student at EDS by providing them with a $10 business loan to kickstart their own mini-businesses.

The young entrepreneurs then channel their creativity and business acumen into crafting custom products that they will sell to the community. The goal is to raise funds for nonprofit organizations and charities of their choosing, fostering a sense of responsibility and empathy in the students from a young age.

This year's 4th Grade Giving Project culminates on Wednesday, November 15th, from 2:30-4:00 in the EDS atrium, where students will showcase and sell their unique products. The items are priced between $1 and $20. Attendees will have the opportunity to support these budding entrepreneurs while contributing to meaningful causes.

The students will present the funds they've raised and share their experiences during special presentations at the end of the month. This not only serves as a moment of pride for the students but also reinforces the importance of community involvement and social responsibility.
