Congratulations to the graduates of EEC Side Hustle Summer 2020; a virtual pilot program that offered workshops, coaching, and access to micro-grants to help NEO college students start or grow a side hustle.

A side hustle is something you do outside of a traditional job or during your studies to earn money.  Side hustles are low risk to start, and not only help you earn extra income, but can also build valuable skills to strengthen your resume.
