SMAKES ACADEMY

Imagine a new approach to the college/vendor model. A partnership where students gain more than a meal, but an education and hands-on experience as well. A student-centric model driven by a shared goal of providing healthy food choices AND creating pragmatic learning experiences that offer the opportunity to practice the academic concepts and fundamentals learned in the classroom.

Welcome to the SMAKES Academy!

SMAKES Academy is the non-profit wing of SMAKES Smoothies+. The academy focuses on teaching students the principles of personal financial budgeting, small business basics and entrepreneurship.

An integral component of SMAKES Academy is its lab. The SMAKES Academy Lab creates a hands-on learning experience for students interested in pursuing business entrepreneurship. Through the SMAKES Academy Lab, students learn all aspects of starting, operating and growing a business.
