Building Bosses/Youth Empowerment Tour

Ajani created a non-profit organization called “Building Bosses", to help the youth to explore & cultivate their talents, promote leadership & positivity, build character through self-esteem by teaching self-worth, & encourage our youth to become productive members of society. 

 

Through Building Bosses, he started a Youth Empowerment Tour to help empower the youth by creating a forum where the youth can openly address the many issues that affect their communities everyday, & suggest possible ways they can make a difference. With this tour, Ajani encouraged young people, feeling underrepresented and often unheard, to take initiative to collect and connect with their peers to spread knowledge, empower, and affirm that there is more to the youth of today than social media and video games; that they have concerns and want to address them, for themselves.
