Inner-city, socially disadvantaged young people – government says they need computers. Schools say they need college. But Trenton NJ-based serial social entrepreneur Bruce Boyd is wiser. Bruce knows the need is to cultivate character, and to expose them to the shining light of opportunity, which he insists lies within their grasp.
Host Bart Jackson invites Bruce Boyd to explain how his Building Our Youth Development enterprise has gathered such a devoted following and become a transformative force for so many of Trenton’s young people. Then, when the crash of Covid dismantled several structures (both within schools and outside), Bruce details how he pivoted his organization to find new avenues and even advantages. Tune in and take a lesson on how to transform your own enterprises to survive/thrive in adverse times.
