Dothan, AL - February 3, 2020 — All In Credit Union has partnered with the Wiregrass Boys and Girls Club to educate students about business principles that provide the foundation for running a business.  The Credit Union’s award-winning Bee the Boss Program was developed to teach elementary and middle school student’s how being an entrepreneur makes it possible to be their own boss. 

Each year, at the outset of the program, students are given a specified amount of money or a “loan” from the Credit Union to purchase a Boys and Girls Club logo item that they can sell to make money. In addition to learning the basics of the loan process, students also learn how to write a business plan, prepare a budget and marketing plan and how interest is calculated. Once the students complete all the preliminary steps, they began selling the product of their choosing.

When Wiregrass Boys and Girls Club members completed the entire program, the students gave the $500 in proceeds back to their organization.

“We’re proud to partner with the Wiregrass Boys and Girls Club for our Bee the Boss Program. These students worked hard over the course of several months and their success exemplifies their dedication and determination,” stated Kathy Scarbrough, All In Credit Union’s Vice President of Marketing.
