Biz Kid$ Public TV Series Teaches Kids About Money
Premiering in January of 2008, Biz Kid$ is a half-hour weekly television series that educates kids about money and business. Each of the 26 episodes features compelling stories about real-life kid entrepreneurs and reinforces the importance of budgeting, saving, and giving back to the community.
Young people host each episode, bringing different cultural backgrounds and life experiences to their quests for financial information. The objective of the series is to empower young viewers to take charge of their financial futures.
Biz Kid$ is produced by the creators of the Emmy award-winning "Bill Nye the Science Guy." To increase community impact, curriculum and educational materials for Biz Kid$ were developed in partnership with Junior Achievement Worldwide.
The Summit is proud to be a sponsor for Biz Kid$ and will have sponsorship TV messages before and after every program.
