Well…yes we did!
We did not reach 100,000 Youth and Young Adults! Our goal was to be intentional on changing lives for as many future leaders as possible. Truthfully our goal was 10,000 Youth and Young Adults! However as you all know, you need to reach to grow…we reached for 100,000 and ended up 7X’s our original goal ending at 74,673 Youth and Young Adults!
Thank you to each and every Administrator, Teacher, Guidance Counselor, Coach, Professor, and School Staff Member who helped us along this wonderful journey at #100KYouth!
74,673 Youth and Young Adults!
Did we make our goal In 2022?
Why 100,000 Youth?
Dr. BJ Paige is a Motivational Speaker for the youth and he is on a mission to reach 100,000 Youth and Young Adults in 2022. BJ Paige fulfills his passion by speaking at Middle Schools, High Schools, and Universities around the country. Late December 2021, BJ had the esteem privilege to be the Guest Speaker for an Honor Roll Assembly at the very same school that expelled him. After years of speaking, a moment with one of the students fueled him to reach 100,000 Youth and Young Adults in 2022.
The goal is to reach one more youth and speak life into them to better their career options. BJ's troubled past from trials to triumph makes him the perfect advocate for adolescence education. As a Workforce Development Motivational Speaker, his story of repeated failure in school is life changing. The story is led from expulsion of 2 school districts, family separation issues, failed transition to adulthood, incarceration, and recurrent career changes as a young adult.
His message is one that resonates with students today. BJ was able to rebound from his troubled past and now after helping thousands of youth and young adults find a career, is noted as one of the most sought after Workforce Development Specialist, he's an Author, and he's one of the Top Workforce Development Motivational Speakers in the country and he is one of the BEST YOUTH SPEAKERS……PERIOD!

“Before I heard you speak, I had no idea what I wanted to do after high school!”
This is what one of the students said to BJ from this school visit and at that very moment BJ began to start his mission of reaching 100,000 youth and young adults in 2022. #100KYouth
