The Pellerito Foundation arranged a special tour of Nike’s World Headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon for Bellflower, California based St. John Bosco High School Entrepreneurship Studies Program students, administration and parents. St. John Bosco visitors learned about Nike’s founding origins, growth, culture of success and dominance in the business of sports. Several of Nike’s senior executives shared personal, inspirational stories and answered students questions during a private meeting.

After a rare tour of Nike’s 213 acre, 22 building campus, students enjoyed lunch at the employee dining room followed by a shopping spree at the exclusive “Employee and Sponsored Athlete Only Nike Store”.

The Pellerito Foundation arranged for other “hands on” learning opportunities for the Entrepreneurship Studies Program students including a company visit and meeting with senior executives from the global commercial real estate firm Jones Lang LaSalle and US Trust, both in Downtown Los Angeles.
