The DSU Delaware Center for Enterprise Development’s Junior Entrepreneur Training (JET) Program also recently received a donation of $2,000 from the Roy Klein Education Foundation of Dover. The donation will support the JET Summer Camp in which middle school students from across the state of Delaware learn business principles. During the camp, the students engage in hands-on activities, work in teams to create a mini business, participate in selling their products on market day, and compete in a business plan competition.

 

The JET Summer Camp – which is in its ninth year – has been financially supported by the Roy Klein Education Foundation in each of the last four years.
