COMPOUNDING POSITIVE CHANGE!

5+ yrs ago we started The Impact Competition.

Our vision was simple: to empower students to improve the 🌎 around them.

I think it is safe to say we succeeded with @CulverAcademies @BlessinBackpack! 🫶🙏

[Lance Breitstein 🇺🇸🌎 @TheOneLanceB]

The world is changing faster than ever. Fortunately, students around the country are focused on making it a better place.

This video highlights the incredible work of my non-profit, @Impact_Comp & @Cornell during their latest competition.

If you follow the headlines, you develop a feeling of pessimism and that the world is worse off today than it was in the past.

If you follow the data, you develop a sense of optimism that the world is better off today than it was in the past.

Here are some ways in which the world has gotten better.

[Lance Breitstein 🇺🇸🌎 @TheOneLanceB]

Many know for the last 8 years I’ve been running a non-profit, @Impact_Comp.

We fund competitions at universities and challenge students to help solve the issues facing local non-profits. Winning teams get cash prizes and seed money to implement their ideas and see real change in their communities.

Until you attend one of these competitions, it’s impossible to explain how inspiring and motivating it is to be a part of. These students genuinely care about their communities and helping these orgs.

I jokingly always say that me attending these is like that scene in 22 Jump Street when Channing Tatum goes back to school and it’s suddenly cool to care about the world you.

Yesterday, I was at @UHouston for their 3rd annual competition which sought to help @impacthubHOU.

We all see traders using AI to empower their work, but it’s incredible seeing students using AI to empower positive change.

Nobody knows what the future holds. There will be bumps. But as long as we have our best and brightest students around the world using tech to make the world a better place, I’m bullish on our future ☀️🌎🙏

There is no better message than hearing that 3 years later, Inner Strength of Philadelphia is still benefiting from an Impact Competition at @VillanovaU! Thank you to the faculty and students that made this possible.

We love when students compound positive change!

Loving our latest video on the amazing work done at @foodconnectgrp, our 2025 @VillanovaU Impact Competition non-profit partner!

Did you know I run a non-profit, @Impact_Comp, in my spare time!? (lol at the thought of how little spare time i actually have)

In this clip I explain why I sell a trading course, what my non-profit does, and the purpose I hope to accomplish by sharing content online.
