Why Volunteer at YEBW at Oregon State University-Cascades?
Now is your chance to make a meaningful impact mentoring youth at Young Entrepreneurs Business Week. Join us as we educate and inspire the next generation of business leaders across Oregon! We bring together accomplished entrepreneurs, executives, educators and professionals from all industries to coach and mentor high school students in leadership, teamwork and so much more...
At YEBW, our focus is experiential learning; we place students in real-world business situations, activities and exercises to show them how to succeed in business and in life. While they learn professional skills that help them advance as entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs, we gain a stronger economy and workforce. It’s a win-win.

Judging is your chance to help students develop business leadership, teamwork and presentation skills. Students spend the week running through business simulations and developing original business products to present. They work hard and want to impress you with their presentations; this is your chance to provide vital feedback and guidance.

Don't be surprised if you walk away feeling uplifted, inspired and re-ignited. Coach your team of 8-to-10 high school students in an interactive business competition. Students run their own mock companies and develop product ideas into business plans, with your guidance and mentorship.
