The Y2Y initiative draws inspiration from actual encounters with both struggling and thriving youth in today's society. We've developed a 20-day program, transitioning from Youngsters to YUNGSTARs, serving as a curriculum for mentor groups, non-profits, churches, team sports, and facilities aimed at positively impacting today's youth. Through daily discussions rooted in real-life experiences, teenagers will actively participate, finding motivation and enthusiasm to embark on the journey of becoming what they would call a Yungstar.
The program addresses a range of challenges faced by young men, including the absence of male role models, limited exposure to a man's perspective on life, and inadequate reading skills, enhancing comprehension.

It guides them in transforming arguments into debates, reducing the likelihood of violence.
The initiative also provides practical examples of what work entails, equips them with decision-making skills against peer pressure, introduces a morning routine for physical well-being, inspires them to explore beyond their surroundings, and encourages setting realistic, attainable goals instead of unrealistic aspirations like NBA or rapper careers.
Our program provides the tools and strategies needed to overcome obstacles and achieve success.
We believe that every young person deserves a chance to flourish and overcome obstacles such as:
This program effectively connects with students at their level, fostering conversations that ignite meaningful debates and cultivate unity.
By realizing shared experiences, students are encouraged to become independent thinkers who consider their actions carefully.
​
The program uses real-life examples to promote positivity, accountability, and pride, necessitating honest self-reflection through challenging questions about the real world.

Amidst the allure of current trends, students may not fully grasp the profound impact of the program, which cleverly imparts life skills in a cool and relevant manner, guiding them towards becoming YUNGSTARs.
