Vendiendo Con Mi Grandma & Grandpa Kids Mercadito

Description

The RGV Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with Mija Media House, invites the community to a free youth entrepreneurship program designed to inspire the next generation of business leaders.

This initiative provides children with hands-on entrepreneurship training, mentorship, and the opportunity to launch and operate their own small business at the Kids Mercadito. The program promotes literacy, financial education, confidence, creativity, and family engagement.

In response to the Rio Grande Valley’s 42% adult illiteracy rate, this initiative focuses on building early skills that encourage lifelong learning and economic empowerment.
Registration is completely free thanks to our sponsors. Families, businesses, and community members are encouraged to participate by registering children, becoming sponsors, or attending the event to support young entrepreneurs.
