LOS ANGELES, June 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Crayon Software Experts announces its support for The StandUp for Kids Youth Entrepreneur Academy (YEA), a 30-week class that allows youth participants to own and operate fully-formed and functioning businesses.

Crayon believes passionately in supporting the wider community, and one of their key business values is to be an active corporate and community citizen through community awareness and giving. Crayon encourages and supports staff participation in the charities that are close to their hearts. Their newest alliance and pledge of support for StandUp for Kids builds upon the cultural values that are part of Crayon's pillars of success.

Frank Bitoun, Senior Vice President of Crayon Americas, stated, "It is an honor to serve as a mentor and volunteer to donate time and knowledge within the youth of our community. I am pleased to support the YEA helping to teach students how to make a job, not just take a job. I'm also pleased to be championing Crayon's commitment to using our status as trusted advisors in the IT community to help the youth of America develop similar passionate dedication to entrepreneurial business goals in their own lives."

"This incredibly generous and transformative gift will be used to continue our Young Entrepreneurs program, transforming youth into business leaders in Orange County," said Justine Palmore, Executive Director of StandUp For Kids. "Crayon Americas shares the passion StandUp For Kids has for creating opportunities for homeless, disadvantaged and at-risk youth in our region."
