Black Entrepreneur Experience

Deidra O'Neal Founder of YBSKids, a nonprofit organization decided it was time for our young children in suburban communities to hear and discover their rich heritage. In today's society, our children are missing the essence of culture and unity, so it is more important than ever to educate our children through diversity, and that is why we ultimately decided to launch

We teach children about their rich history and those of different cultures, which helps them become more socially active, an essential part of a child's development. Here at Y.B.S. Kids, your child will gain further knowledge, individual strength, perseverance, and the ability to embrace their own identity. Teaching children about other cultures and their own builds character and enables our children to believe and value the things that make them exceptional, confident, and proud. 

Our vision is to inspire children to become who they want to be, but more importantly, influence self-confidence and pride.

​Young, Black, and Suburban Kids. 

Y.B.S. Kids provides programs and initiatives for children in grades 3-12, teaching outside the traditional classroom with an essential part of our identity, teaching necessary life skills that help them become successful and productive young adults.

Did you know that I used to be an assistant principal of an elementary school? And before that I was a youth pastor? Trading changed my life. One night I wrote two words in my journal: trade and travel. That was my dream. I had always been interested in investing and had tried on my own, but failed. I also loved to travel, but never made enough money or had enough time off to do so. This time I was committed. I enrolled in a class and set out on a new adventure to make my money work for me. It took some practice, but my dream has come true! I now trade full-time and have the ability to travel as much as I want. My income is higher than it has ever been and I look forward to waking up every day to trade. But I still want to help people, which is why I want to teach you how you can also be successful trading and change your life! In my Trade and Travel course you'll learn more about the steps I took to get to where I am today, and you'll learn the tips and tricks that help me remain successful. I can't wait to share it with you! Website: https://investwithteri.com Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices.
