A few months ago, I had an idea for a city-wide scavenger hunt, and last week, that idea transformed into a powerful experience for Newark’s youth. What started as a simple concept turned into an opportunity for students to engage with local businesses, explore cultural landmarks, and connect with the vibrant community around them—all while learning key financial skills. Watching the students discover Newark’s unique spaces—like BrownMill Company and MENTOR Newark—was incredible. They met business and nonprofit leaders who shared stories of resilience and entrepreneurship, engaged in financial literacy challenges, and gained valuable exposure to their thriving local community. The energy was contagious, from their competitive spirit to their curiosity. A huge thank you to Kira Traore and Chime for trusting me and the Values Partnerships team to bring this vision to life. Dr. Sharnee Brown and Mark Comesanas were also immensely helpful partners; their deep understanding of Newark helped us shape an event that was truly impactful for their community. Special shoutout to Kelsei Wharton for his partnership and Dessie Brown Jr. for always coming through when it counts. I also had the honor of moderating a conversation with Alix Lapri (Power) and Jacob Latimore (The Chi), where they shared their personal financial journeys. I’m grateful for the incredible folks at Great Oaks Legacy Charter School, Marion P. Thomas Charter School, UCC Newark, and Leaders for Life, who made this possible, and most importantly, to the students who brought such energy and enthusiasm to the day. Looking forward to curating more experiences that empower our youth and strengthen our communities!
