The colleges and universities will lend support to a massive effort to reinvigorate small businesses and entrepreneurship in seven cities.

Students at Medgar Evers, Howard and UDC will receive guidance that will help them wisely manage their money, build future investments and achieve wealth.

CEO Casey Welch discusses how students are using Tallo to build their portfolios and how colleges and universities can and should be connecting with them.

“We do not want any of our students to have an experience that leaves them feeling unsupported or fearful. … And, to be honest with the committee, we have heard from other students, faculty and staff in our college that we’ve failed them as well."
