A message from the Founder, Deborah Kanafani
We started this program ten years ago in Los Angeles. It quickly grew and before we knew it we had classes set up from San Diego to Santa Barbara. After that we expanded to Westchester, New York.
We have a system, a model, a curriculum that works and is in demand...but we can't be everywhere.
That's why we're inviting partners to bring Bizzy Girls to their own communities.
As a partner you would set up and run Bizzy Girls classes or camps in your area. We mostly work with city Departments of Recreation who are always looking for creative programs for tweens. In many cases it just takes one phone call to the program director to get a program scheduled.
We sign all contracts with the Departments of Recreation and provide the insurance. They provide the space, advertise and take registration. Once you set up the dates of your classes or camps, your role is to manage and teach the class.
We provide full training for setting up class and teaching our curriculum. It is easy to follow. Much of student's time is spent creating their product. This is very rewarding if you are creative and have experience teaching children.
Partner Opportunity:
Afterschool: As a partner you will have an exclusive surrounding area with several towns and many schools. The Departments of Recreation offer after school classes for three semesters (fall, winter, spring). Our classes is offered during each semester, usually for 8 weeks, 1 day per week for 1 - 1.2 hours weeks. It ends with a pop up shop where girls sell their products to friends and family. Departments of Parks and Recreation, also offer vacation camps, usually 3 pr year.
Summer Camps: Summer camps usually run 1 week, 9:30 to 2:30. Some cities offer the camp during 2 different weeks, As the program gets known cities usually add on weeks. In Santa Barbara we have 5 weeks of camps, 2 camps per week and they are sold week way before the summer.
You will have enough towns surrounding you with plentiful schools and Departments of Recreation, that you could book an after school class every day of the week, three vacation camps and 7 weeks of summer camps. You make your own schedule. We require 3 after schools per semester, 2 vacation camps and 4 weeks of summer camp to keep an exclusive area.
Income opportunities
We work with partners on a percentage basis. we will break that down for you. When working with a city, they usually take 20% of the gross tuitions in exchange for the space, advertising and administration.
Schools vary. Some take a percentage, others do not.
Tuitions range between $385 to $450 per student for a week-long summer camp. Houra are usually 9:30 - 2:30.
After-school classes are approximately $280 for 8 weeks, 1.5 hours a week.
Departments of Recreation will list and market the class. They take the registration and send out the welcome letters. You teach the class. The cities take approximately 20% of the gross.
We are giving a very low enrollment as an example. When we began we had 15-18 students in a class.
Last year, we had 50 students each week (2 weeks) in our Beverly Hills camp and 40 students (which was our maximum space capacity) in our Santa Barbara camp. We had 4 weeks of camp there. We recommend you have an assistant teacher if there are over 12 students in the class. Assistant teachers can be a teen getting community hours.
Example: Afterschool 1 x per week - Tuition $280 for 8 weeks
If you have 10 girls in an afterschool class at $280 each, that is a gross of $2800.00.
The city will take their 20%, leaving you with a profit of $2300 for just one class.
You can book these as many days during the week as you want.
You can also offer Bizzy Boys or Bizzy Kids (our co-ed camp).
Example: Summer Camp 1 week 9:30 - 2:30 - Tuition $385 for one week
If you have 10 students in a summer camp at $385 each, that is a gross of $3850.00
The city will take 20%, leaving you with a profit of $3,080.00 for one week.
Supplies : Students chose a project before camp starts and they bring those specific supplies
with them. The teacher brings some basics ie. paper, scissors, markers, vinyl, table clothes.
Workbooks are at cost, $5.00 each from amazon, sent via Prime. Total amount for 10 students
would be approximately $75.00. Most things would be reusable.
