Found Village

From her experience in the Elevator, Found Village founder Kate Nzekwu gained valuable insights, mentorship, community connections, resources, and pitch training for her social enterprise. Found Village partners with schools, family services agencies, and behavioral health centers to provide wraparound services and sponsored opportunities for community engagement for at-risk teens.

Found Village has helped over 30 teens and decreased psychiatric hospitalizations on at-risk teens by 75% as well as increased their school attendance by 50%. Through programs like Elevator, Flywheel gives social enterprises the assistance they need to understand their opportunities, strategize for future growth, and maximize their impact in the community.
