Learning Lab Ventures Founder Rochelle Gores Fredston shares how running her nonprofit like a business accelerates impact and longevity. : Every August, Learning Lab Ventures kicks off the school year guiding 2,500 students in Highland Park, Los Angeles in a vision board exercise. The kids, who range from ages 5 to 19, include photos of everything from dream colleges to unique careers. An LLV counselor also announces the year each group will graduate from college, say the Class of 2025. For many of these students, it’s the first time anyone has ever implied that they can go to college.
