Are you Kidding me is a company started by two brothers who are 7! (Yes you can count their on your hands and still have 3 fingers left over!) Their company is making socks they teamed up with American Cancer Society and Live Like Bella Foundation to raise money Cancer awareness. they started working with another group as well call Discovery arts, they donated 25% their proceeds from “eye see you” socks and raised 3,000 dollars for them!
These Young entrepreneurs started out by his mom saying that he should design his own socks and ended up really like them and selling them!
I love how entrepreneurism is a trait that we naturally have even as children. It goes to show how with some dedication to a cause, connections and help… we can make an impact no matter what age we are. I would love to see what these brothers do in the future!
The name of the business is really interesting. It’s good at catching attention. That’s such a great example of showing how caring about something can lead to a product and successfully help the cause!
This is a really interesting story. I can’t believe they are only 7 years old! This just demonstrates how innovative ideas come from individuals of all ages .
