One Week this summer can change everything!
Business education is anything but boring! At PFEW, high schoolers learn the ropes while meeting friends to last a lifetime.
What is PFEW?
Pennsylvania Free Enterprise Week is an intensive program that educates high school students about the American free enterprise system. Bringing motivated students together with business people from throughout the state. This unique concept in learning has enhanced the lives of nearly 50,000 young adults for more than forty years.
During PFEW, participants not only learn to appreciate our free enterprise system, but they also see from a practitioner’s perspective what it takes to be successful in an increasingly competitive global marketplace. Student companies simulate the actual operation of their own business for the equivalent of three years. Facing all of the decisions that real executives are confronted by, the student companies are mentored by dedicated business volunteers who serve as Company Advisors. Sharing their knowledge and expertise, Company Advisors address the most significant issues facing business today in straightforward, informal discussions with students.
Accented with motivational speakers and interactive learning exercises, this one-of-a-kind program furnishes a real-life educational experience for eager students. Sponsorship winners grasp the value of teamwork, cooperation and leadership, and are provided with an invaluable opportunity to develop communication skills.
PFEW magic
PFEW is an educational program like no other. It’s where young people open doors to their future. It’s where they experience the excitement and thrill of business, teamwork, competition, independence, ownership, and personal responsibility. It’s where they embrace and celebrate our American free enterprise system. And it’s where they forge their path to a successful future. We call it the PFEW Magic, and every eager student should experience it.
