Over the world there is a problem there are a large of companies without experience, they need qualified employees in several areas but is difficult to hire due to lack of resources since they have yet to establish their brand, college graduates prefer big companies with experience. And the other hand, there are a lot of qualified college graduates crave hands-on business experience to learn how to start a business, but they have to struggle to be hire because they don’t have experience.
[http://ventureforamerica.org/ Venture for America] '''is a nonprofit fellowship program''' for college graduates who want to learn how to build businesses and create opportunities, become entrepreneurs really. It was founded in 2011 by Andrew Yang to train and place talented college graduates at start-up companies located in struggling cities. Modeled after [http://www.teachforamerica.org/ Teach for America], Venture for America seeks to revitalize America through entrepreneurship, while enabling opportunity and restoring an American culture of achievement.
[[File:Ventureforamerica.png|frame|Ventureforamerica.png]]Since its inception, the organization has trained almost'''100 fellows (today applications exceed availability), given fellows access to upwards of $100k in yearly seed funding''' and facilitated their placement in cities including Detroit, New Orleans, Providence, Cincinnati and eight other U.S. cities.
'We are a community of builders with integrity. We are a team of dedicated professionals working hard to '''create a better future'''. We are a collective of supporters, advisors, and leaders who '''believe that entrepreneurship changes lives''', strengthens communities and makes those who take the leap better versions of themselves.'

[[File:Andrew Yang.jpg|frame|Andrew Yang.jpg]]Graduating from Columbia Law School, Andrew Yang was conflicted with what to do for his career. As with many other young professionals, Yang knew the options outside of working on Wall Street were slim and likely career-diverting. After working with, and starting several companies (rising to the rank of CEO in Manhattan GMAT), Yang founded Venture for America, to increase the accessibility to the start-up process for college graduates.
The problem today is that ''qualified college graduates crave hands-on business experience'' to learn how to start a business. Meanwhile, ''start-up companies struggle to hire due to lack of resources'' since they have yet to establish their brand. '''Venture for America bridges this gap; the organization gives companies access to high quality, motivated young workers.'''
