Hi, my name is Kwame Mensah-Boone and I am a high school sophomore. I started this organization because because of the raging economic inequality in our society, and due to the lack of economic literacy programs to combat those inequalities. In my free time I enjoy cooking, throwing shot put and discus, competing in Lincoln-Douglas debate, and all to do with economics.
Hello, my name is Grace. I am a high school student who enjoys writing, anything to do with music, as well as analyzing media. I joined the ELI because I want to help uplift communities, and economic literacy has been shown to be a key in accomplishing that.
