BASK(Business Achievement Spotlight for Kids) Monthly Pitch Competition

It started as a local fair in Acton, MA. For nine years we ran one of the largest youth entrepreneur fairs — watched kids as young as six set up real booths, pitch to real strangers, and walk away with money they earned themselves. Real customers, real cash. Every year it got bigger. Kids who came at 9 came back at 14 with full business plans. Parents told us it changed how their kids thought about money.But a fair that runs once a year only gets kids thinking about business for one day. We wanted them thinking about it year-round. That's why we built BASK Pitch.BASK Pitch is a monthly online video pitch competition for young entrepreneurs ages 12 to 17, from any country. Film a short pitch from your bedroom. Submit it. Our judges pick the top 3 every month and send real cash — $300, $200, and $100 — directly to the winner's parent or guardian. Every single submission gets posted on our social media. Win or lose, your idea gets seen.We don't award ribbons or trophies to everyone. We award real cash to the best ideas. Kids know the difference and it changes how hard they work. You don't need a teacher to nominate you. Any kid ages 12 to 17 can enter, solo or as a group of up to 3, from anywhere in the world.We want every kid to think like an entrepreneur — not just on fair day, but every day. BASK Pitch is how we do that.baskchallenge.org/pitch
