Our Team
The "for youth – by youth" model is the cornerstone of My True Prosperity's Bright Minds Business Leaders Program, embodying a transformative approach to education that harnesses the power of peer influence and mentorship. This innovative model recruits program alumni, who have excelled in their journey, to lead and mentor new participants. By doing so, it creates an empowering environment where learning is not just imparted but shared, making every lesson relatable and every challenge approachable. This structure ensures that participants see themselves reflected in their leaders, fostering a deeper connection to the material and a greater sense of possibility for their own futures. It champions a cycle of continuous improvement and leadership development, where today's learners become tomorrow's mentors, ensuring the program's sustainability and relevance. This youth-led approach not only amplifies the impact of the program on individual participants but also strengthens the fabric of the community by cultivating a generation of leaders who are equipped, empathetic, and ready to effect positive change.
Our History
The genesis of our flagship initiative, the Bright Minds Business Leaders Program, now in its ninth year, was sparked by a critical gap identified between the skills taught in traditional educational settings and the realities of the professional world. Leveraging extensive surveys with hundreds of businesses, we crafted a curriculum that not only addresses this gap but also empowers youth to become proactive solvers of socio-economic challenges.
Our Mission
Led by the visionary Bill Mills, whose career spans across the retail, banking, and nonprofit sectors, our team is dedicated to transforming communities through innovative education. The Bright Minds Program, known for its unique "for youth – by youth" model, equips participants with the skills and knowledge necessary to tackle real-world socio-economic challenges, making them not just ready for the professional world but poised to thrive in it.
