SIFE is a nonprofit organization that gives students the
tools to learn the free enterprise
system in
a real working situation. SIFE challenges students on more
than 800 college campuses nationwide
to take what they're learning in the classroom and use their knowledge
to better their communities.
Guided by faculty advisors who are named Sam M. Walton Free Enterprise
Fellows in honor of the late Wal-Mart founder, SIFE Teams establish a
variety of community outreach programs that teach free enterprise. For
example, they teach concepts such as budgeting, accounting and supply
and demand. They help budding entrepreneurs get their plans off the
ground and mentor at-risk students, inspiring them to reach for their
dreams.
