It was established in January 2009 as an outgrowth of the 2008 children's book One Hen: How One Small Loan Made a Big Difference and the educator movement it inspired. One Hen's mission is to empower kids to become social entrepreneurs who make a difference for themselves and the world by equipping educators with educational resources to inspire kids to four values: financial responsibility, personal initiative, global awareness and giving back. Through [https://www.onehen.org/overview/ One Hen] and a [https://www.onehen.org website] of free games and activities, young people (grades K-8) are challenged to start their own small businesses. One Hen works with national and international educators, schools, community centers, and through the partnership with educational organizations such as BELL, Citizen Schools, and National Heritage Academies to implement its One Hen curriculum. Since the organization's inception, over 5,000 students have participated in the full One Hen program. To date, these programs and resources have reached over 32,000 children in 100+ countries and across the United States. The BookOne Hen: How One Small Loan Made a Big Difference[2] is written by award-winning author [https://www.onehen.org/home-2/authors-corner/ Katie Smith Milway]. The book is published by Kids Can Press[3] and is illustrated by Eugenie Fernandes.[4] Based on the true story of Dr. Kwabena Darko, the book follows the life of a West African boy, Kojo, who receives a small loan to buy a hen, and takes flight as an entrepreneur. He moves gradually from poverty, to well-being, to provider who creates opportunities for others. It's a story of how the world undergoes change one person, one family, and one community at a time.[3]Since its publication in the spring of 2008, One Hen has won accolades for its story and illustrations, including:
HistoryOne Hen is built upon the global lessons of children's book One Hen: How One Small Loan Made a Big Difference and the original interactive website {{URL|www.onehen.org}}, which was developed as a pro bono project by Sapient Interactive, the marketing services group of Sapient Nitro, and Bain & Company's Community Works program.[10] In September 2008 a group of four women met at Babson College, along with other volunteers, and founded One Hen, Inc.[11] All of these volunteers had taken leadership roles in the educational movement that had evolved from the book One Hen and its accompanying website. They formed a volunteer management team and in January 2009, One Hen, Inc. was registered as a 501(c)(3) organization. During the spring of 2009, in response to widespread educator interest, the One Hen team worked with teachers from the JFK Elementary School in Canton, Massachusetts to develop One Hen Academy. Educators were eager to teach social entrepreneurship and the value of giving in their classrooms. This collaboration earned One Hen and the JFK a feature on ABC news with Charlie Gibson in May 2009. In July 2009, the first One Hen summer program piloted with 100 students in Boston in partnership with BELL (Building Educated Leaders for Life). In 2010, One Hen expanded with partner BELL and worked with City Year to reach 2,100 children in five other cities (Boston, Detroit, Baltimore, New York and Augusta, GA). In 2011, One Hen refined the curriculum for 6th grade and expanded the program to middle school students, extending program implementation to charter school network National Heritage Academies. In just one year this partnership grew from 400 students to nearly 2,000 students. In the fall of 2012 One Hen developed an afterschool program, adjusting the curriculum to meet the needs of the extended day population in partnership with Citizen Schools and [https://www.bostonscores.org/ Boston Scores]. This Boston focused programming was piloted across a number of Boston Public Schools middle schools during the 2012-13 academic year. On September 1, 2016: One Hen announced the acquisition of its flagship program and related infrastructure by [https://www.bostonscores.org/ Boston Scores], a top Boston youth development organization and One Hen partner since 2012. Established in 1999, Boston Scores partners with Boston Public School teachers to offer under-served students programs that develop the whole child. One Hen[https://www.onehen.org/overview/ One Hen] is an enrichment curriculum based on the One Hen story. Students begin the program by learning about the character "Kojo", a young Ghanaian boy who makes a big difference by buying one hen, which in turn lays eggs, and hatches more hens, until he eventually becomes the largest chicken farmer in all of Ghana. The interactive curriculum teaches elementary and middle school students the fundamentals of money management, the basics of starting a business, and the importance of helping others. Through the lessons, students learn how business works and the basics of money management. Then, inspired by Kojo's story, they receive micro-loans to start simple businesses. Students apply what they have learned, sell their products, and ultimately give most of their profits to help others in need. One Hen is used by 3rd-7th grade students in traditional classroom, homeschool, and afterschool settings, or as an enrichment program for an organization. The 8 module curriculum leads kids through the core concepts of starting a socially conscious business. Websiteonehen.org will be integrated with bostonscores.org and expanded to serve as Boston Scores' online education platform, supplying curricula and teaching tools to help youth build micro-businesses and invest the proceeds in global and local causes that students choose. The kids section includes games to draw young users into the act of microfinance. Children play games such as navigating a maze; completing a quiz on the book; catching virtual fish and decorating African beads. In the educators section, teachers, librarians, and parents create, post and share curriculum and activities to use to teach math, social studies, reading, world resources and more through the lens of social enterprise, comprising financial literacy, youth philanthropy and global citizenship. RecognitionOne Hen has won numerous book and website awards as well as notes from pioneers in poverty alleviation, including Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus, founder of Grameen Bank.[12] 2010
