Whatever It Takes.

Is WIT a fit?

Dear Parent(s),

Welcome to WIT (Whatever It Takes)! As a former teacher turned entrepreneur, I founded WIT because I saw firsthand how young people thrive when given the tools, opportunities, and confidence to lead, create, and make an impact. If you're here, it means you're invested in your teen’s future—and so are we.

We know that the road to college (and life beyond it) can be overwhelming. The pressure, the competition, the constant question of “What will make my teen stand out?”—it’s a lot. That’s where WIT comes in.

At WIT, teens don’t just build résumés; they build businesses, launch nonprofits, and solve real-world problems. Through our programs, they develop critical life skills—self-discipline, time management, problem-solving, and resilience. They learn to navigate challenges, handle setbacks, and step into leadership roles that make them stand out in college applications and, more importantly, in life.

We believe in empowering teens to take ownership of their future—not just by checking boxes, but by pursuing passions, leading with purpose, and creating meaningful change. Our community of mentors, entrepreneurs, and like-minded peers helps teens grow into confident, capable, and college-ready young adults.

We’re excited to welcome you and your teen to WIT and can’t wait to see what they’ll create, lead, and accomplish.

Let’s do whatever it takes—together.

With gratitude,
Sarah Hernholm
