King Randall, a 23-year old who founded a youth organization called The X for Boys, is opening up a new school in Albany, Georgia called the New Life Preparatory School for Boys that aims to help more young Black boys in the community reach their full potential.

Two years ago, Randall was just 19-years old when he started The X for Boys, which provides a safe space for teenage boys age 11-17. The organization has since hosted different workshops on skills such as welding, automotive repair, construction as well as cooking.

They also organized field trips and a book club, which significantly improved the ability of some children who didn’t know how to read to an 86% reading comprehension rate.
