MISSION, VISION & APPROACH

MISSION/BELIEF

The mission of Xposure Foundation Inc. is to expose children, youth and families in underserved communities, to the worlds of Science, Technology, Finance, Work Ethics, Nutrition and Community Service while helping to build stronger Parent/Child Partnerships. Our belief is that a holistic learning approach to exploring the world is needed early in a child’s development. This opens their eyes to the infinite number of opportunities they have to become successful and productive members of society.

VISION

Leveling the playing field, so they can play on any field!

Life Skills with Project-Based Learning Infused with S.T.E.A.M

EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING

Since 2007 Xposure Foundation Inc. has helped thousands of children and youth open their very own custodial savings and investment accounts. We’ve sponsored hundreds of bank trips where children and youth fill out deposit slips and deposit money into their very own bank savings account. Our STOCK PURCHASE PARTIES are all the rage as we celebrate our young people becoming OWNERS / SHAREHOLDERS in real time by purchasing fractional shares of Fortune 500 companies using their very own custodial investment accounts to trade. Is there a better way to have children and youth use their newfound financial knowledge? Forget those cruel stock market games with fictional capital, we actually teach young people the basics of the stock market and then provide them with seed money for their very first investment. Some of those young people now own NIKE shares in addition to those NIKE Airs. Have you ever watched a 5 year old walk up to the bank teller to deposit money into their very own bank account? One word best describes that scene, “POWERFUL!” Through our “FINANCIAL LITERACY FOR ALL” – EARN WHILE YOU LEARN and WALL STREET WARRIORS programs we provide children and youth in our daycares, after-school programs and tutoring platforms with the seed money to participate in a core part of the American Dream, saving and investing, early and often. Our belief is that children and youth who regularly deposit, save, and invest money they earn are much more likely to develop positive life-long financial habits that will lead to life-long financial success.

TEACH WITH A TEE

Teach With A Tee is a unique school-based program created and operated by ClubXTShirtExpress that teaches K-12 students entrepreneurship and financial literacy through apparel making. Our unique project-based learning model teaches students basic business techniques from creating a business plan to actually building and marketing their own affiliate Teach With A Tee website or catalogue to sell products they create. Students keep 100% of the profit, which they are taught how to save and invest. Through our hands-on experiential model, students learn how to use stateof-the-art print and design equipment and software to create custom designs, which are printed on apparel and accessories of their choice.

MUSCIENCE

MUScience – Explore and Discover While Singing And Dancing is a collection of songs and animations based on the following science concepts: G.E.R.M.S, Gravity, Four Seasons, Oxygen, DNA, Light, Sound, Five Senses. The songs have infectious beats and simple but educational lyrics like, “Germs are nasty they get on our hands, we wash them off we don’t want them here. They make us cough, they make us sneeze, we want those bad germs all to leave” or “Jump, Jump to get pulled down, Gravity will always pull you back to the ground.” By watching and listening to the "MUScience" series, children will learn basic science concepts in a fun, interactive and engaging way. We have watched many children work up a sweat as they inhale, exhale and mimic the workout routine of Micci, H2O Joe and other characters found throughout the “MUScience” series.
