Students from William Tennent High School and Cristo Rey Philadelphia High School took part in the Caruso Challenge hosted by the Uncommon Individual Foundation. Students learned to think like entrepreneurs as they worked to solve problems in their community. The 16-part Entrepreneurial Program is accredited at several Philadelphia area colleges. This year, UIF partnered with ExcitED who provided students with a stipend to participate.

The Caruso Challenge is made possible by the Uncommon Individual Foundation.

Founded in 1986, by Dr. Richard E. Caruso, the Uncommon Individual Foundation (UIF) is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit leader in mentor-based learning. A successful entrepreneur, and former CEO of Integra Life Sciences, Dr. Caruso attributes his entrepreneurial success to the mentors he encountered throughout his life. UIF is his way of ‘mentoring it forward,’ to help individuals and organization succeed through curated connections to mentors.
