Deborah Kanafani plans to inspire girls to be entrepreneurs well before they finish grade school.

Kanafani will debut Kate’s Bizzy Girls (for girls 7 to 9) and Bizzy Girls Inc. (for girls 10 to 14) in July, both are children’s programs on entrepreneurship, Kanafani forecasted that most of her students dream of running a fashion company. So it makes sense that the programs will be based out of a community room at the exclusive Santa Monica Place mall in Santa Monica, Calif., which is the address of specialty shops Barney’s Co-op, Kitson, Louis Vuitton, department stores Bloomingdale’s, Nordstrom as well as fast fashion shop ANGL.

Students will gain instruction on product development, managing a company and pointers on visual display. By the end of the summer, the students will display their products at a kiosk at Santa Monica Place. For more information, contact 866-722-8333 or bizzygirlsinc@yahoo.com.
