Hardy Farrow
Executive Director, Let's Innovate through Education
They are two of the most overlooked resources: discovering your strengths and targeting local entrepreneurial opportunities. LITE is a combination of both, helping Memphis-area minority-low income students identify areas where their skills can improve their city. They work with teachers and local professionals to create a business plan, including operations, management, budgeting and sales. It's working: 100% of students have graduated high school, over 95% are on track to graduate college within 4 years, and they average $260K in merit scholarships. Farrow was a Teach for America National Innovation Award Winner in 2014.
