Enabling opportunity
At eBay, our mission is to enable opportunity for all. Supporting entrepreneurs and small businesses in communities all over the world is central to our mission. Every day eBay helps independent sellers, entrepreneurs and small businesses learn new skills, gain confidence and access a market where they can turn their dreams into business success.
That’s why we’ve chosen to partner with The Prince’s Trust. They, like us, believe that every young person should have the chance to fulfil their potential. Through their Enterprise Programme, The Prince’s Trust works with 18-30-year-olds to turn big ideas into a business reality by providing training, mentoring, funding and a variety of other resources to budding entrepreneurs.
So far, the Prince’s Trust has helped over 86,000 young people to start their own business through its transformative Enterprise Programme. Help us raise vital funds to support their work so more young people can work towards a brighter future.
