About Stiletto Boss University

Stiletto Boss University (SBU) is a youth training program for middle and high-school girls, that uses entrepreneurship as the foundation for teaching the power of collaboration, sisterhood and community impact. Through SBU, young women are building the skills and the confidence needed to create a social enterprise that is able to generate income while also giving back to the community. Our program is an entrepreneurship series promoting education and practical application to female high school students culminating into a final showcase with a chance to win internships. The pilot program began at the start of the 2015 - 2016 school year at Harding University High School in partnership with MeckEd’s Career Pathways program. As we moved into our 2nd year, we enhanced and implemented the program within the Grier Heights Community in partnership with Crossroads Corporation. Our goal is to teach young ladies how to create one business that will promote sustainability and unity within the community. Currently, the SBU program has expanded back into the school system with the help of Communities In School (CIS). Community In School connects students to impactful workplace learning opportunities, fostering career exploration, while also connecting the dots to the real-world application of education and the workplace. It has been extremely important to teach each young lady who participates in the program, understand the power of collaboration and SISTERHOOD. We received our 501c3 status on May 2017. We are committed to expand our program to 10 total chapters by 2020.
