Over the years, we’ve been fortunate to partner with the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation on a number of different education and learning initiatives. Our most recent partnership focuses on Real World Learning, an initiative to get high school students varied and formative hands-on experiences doing real work within their communities.
