YounGameChangers
Program
|
YounGameChangers Program provides a voice of motivation, empowerment and encouragement to inner-city young
athletes to be game changers off the court or field by achieving academic excellence, developing personal skills and
making positive decisions to avoid problem and high-risk behavior so that they can grow to be confident and successful
role models and leaders.
In Phase I, Marcus hosts one-hour long YounGameChangers assemblies at inner-city schools and/or community
centers like Cathedral High School and Boston-area Boys & Girls Clubs. Marcus will speak to these young athletes
about how they have to be game changers off the court or field before they can be game changers on the court or
field. Marcus will also provide the YounGameChanger with YounGameChangers SWAG as a daily reminder to make
positive decisions. |
