The next generation is ready. Are you?

FreshOut's founding cohort begins Q1 2027. We're building this with four kinds of people — the young founders who'll walk through it, the mentors who'll stand beside them, the donors who'll fund the path, and the institutions who'll partner on the infrastructure. Find your door.

For Future Founders

Apply to the Founding Cohort.

Twelve to fifteen seats. $100/week stipend, one assigned mentor, business formation, and a direct path to capital. If you are 17-26 and ready to build forward — this is the door.

For Institutional Partners

Build the ecosystem.

Banks, CDFIs, school districts, foundations, and corporate partners. We're assembling the infrastructure layer that makes participant outcomes possible — and there's room for the right partners in this founding year.
