Now in our 6th year, this opportunity is designed to invest in young people who are striving to make a positive impact in their schools and communities.
Mentorship experience designed to help young men grow in character, confidence, and leadership. Through engaging lessons, real conversations, and hands-on activities, participants learn life skills like accountability, respect, goal-setting, and community responsibility. Our mission is to guide young men into becoming disciplined, purpose-driven leaders who positively impact their future and those around them.
Scholarship Opportunity
YAYO means a lot to me, without YAYO I honestly don’t know where I would be today. I was a bad kid always fighting being disrespectful and had horrible grades. After YAYO everything changed for the better. YAYO has helped me become a better man on and off the football field. From them teaching me about GPA and how it’s important for college. As well as teaching me how to be respectful, have manners and countless more life lessons that I will continue to use for the rest of my life.
