Next Brick joins the nonprofit’s mission to give kids real-world business experience at one-day entrepreneur fairs across the Pacific Northwest.
BELLEVUE, WA, UNITED STATES, June 16, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Next Brick, a Bellevue-based property management company, today announced its sponsorship of the Children’s Business Foundation — the nonprofit behind the one-day fairs where kids across the Pacific Northwest launch and run real businesses of their own. The sponsorship puts Next Brick, recently named a 2026 Best Property Management Company in Bellevue by Expertise.com, squarely behind a youth-entrepreneurship movement taking root in the same Eastside communities it serves — Bellevue, Redmond, and Seattle among them.
The Children’s Business Foundation, whose motto is “creating tomorrow’s entrepreneurs today,” guides young people through the full arc of starting a venture. Participants submit a business idea, develop a product or service, set their prices, prepare their marketing, and then sell to real customers at a community fair before reflecting on what they learned. Along the way, kids build the kind of confidence, creativity, and resilience that classrooms rarely have room to teach.
For Next Brick, the cause is close to home — literally. The company’s name reflects a belief in building things that last, from rental homes to the neighborhoods around them, and the sponsorship extends that idea to the next generation of local builders and business owners.
“Supporting young entrepreneurs in the same neighborhoods where we work is the most natural extension of that we can imagine. These kids are learning to take an idea, price it, market it, and stand behind it at a real booth — and we’re proud to help give them that first experience.” said Seemant Nakra, Founder at Next Brick.
The sponsorship helps the Foundation expand access to its fairs and supports the young entrepreneurs who take part, with applications for the 2026 season now open to families across the region.
Families interested in taking part, and businesses interested in sponsoring a fair, can learn more and apply at the Children’s Business Foundation website.
