Working together for students in grades K-12
Career Lab Live works with schools, businesses and community organizations to bring hands-on financial literacy and career readiness to students. Programs currently run for grades K-6; programs for grades 7-12 are in development. Partners bring expertise, funding and real-world connections.

Technology partner
Fundoria LLC
Fundoria LLC builds and runs the game platform used in our after-school program and summer camp. Career Lab Live creates the school modules, owns all of the curriculum content inside and outside the games, pays the curriculum experts, holds the industry relationships and runs every program. Fundoria is the technical and operating side.
Two organizations, disclosed plainly
Career Lab Live Corporation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, EIN 39-3910687. Fundoria LLC is a Georgia limited liability company that builds and runs a K-6 financial literacy game platform. They are separate legal entities with separate finances. Patrick Arnold, Career Lab Live's founder and executive director, also leads Fundoria LLC, so the relationship between them is a related-party relationship.
The arrangement is meant to run in both directions: Fundoria's games licensed to Career Lab Live for use in our programs, and Career Lab Live's curriculum content licensed back to Fundoria for use in the games.
Neither license between the two organizations has been signed yet, and no fee has been set. Terms are to be set at market value and are governed by Career Lab Live's board of directors.
