#DiscoverU21 - INSPIRING Vision, Hope & Education
#DiscoverU21 = "Discover You 21"
👇🏾👇🏾 Why 21? ~ Here's why! 👇🏾👇🏾
Co-founder, Reggie Dupard loves inspiring youth through his life story of vision, hope, education and hard work. As a young boy growing up in the Magnolia projects of New Orleans, Reggie had family support but he often faced challenges of ridicule among his peers because he was always smaller than his classmates.
Recreation playground football was his love and he was not shy about sharing his dream to become a NFL player. One day in elementary school the teacher asked each student to tell what they wanted to be, Reggie shared that he was going to be a professional football player and one of his classmates laughed hysterically.
Reggie remembers the embarrassment then a burning desire to prove his classmate “the doubter” wrong. He then used the negativity as motivation to work harder. He could have easily allowed his classmate to change his belief but instead he decided to continue discovering and believing in his dream.
Reggie chose the number “21” during his recreation playground years and used #21 to fuel his dream from playground, high school, college to fulfilling his dream of playing in the NFL when he was drafted by the New England Patriots in the 1st round of the 1986 draft.
Today, #DiscoverU21 is a symbolic message and reminder to students that hard work, never giving up and giving back to others makes dreams a reality!
📣 #DiscoverU21 helps students discover their life goals and dreams through vision trips, college tours, careers, life coaching after school programs!

We start introducing our community youth to enrichment/vision trips as early as 8 years old. These trips are valuable to individuals because students learn there are other ways to improve on life. Our ambassadors are now setting goals for college and take less risks at making bad decisions because they have a future to look forward to.

Long Term Success
By introducing our community youth to college and career opportunities, students begin to see life with hope and positive change.

Tower Gardens!
Want a garden but don’t have the space? Because of its vertical, compact design, Tower Garden requires as little as 10% of the land and water traditional growing methods use. So it’s perfect for small spaces, such as balconies, patios, rooftops—even your kitchen with grow lights. And it’s better for the environment, too.
