#PowerOf11, 2024, Ep. 5: Kevin Ramos and Jesus Acosta Jr.

Andrew speaks with two participants of South Bronx United’s Workforce Development Program and Coaching Corps: Kevin Ramos, 20, and Jesus Acosta Jr., 19.

The #PowerOf11 campaign seeks to share South Bronx United's mission with the world through personal stories of those whose lives have been changed by South Bronx United.  As we are almost exclusively funded through the generous support of private funders and individuals like yourself, the campaign is also a crucial fundraising vehicle to ensuring all of our programs can sustain into the new program and school year. Visit powerof11.southbronxunited.org to learn more.

This season’s #PowerOf11 Podcast gives the listener another window into the lives those closest to South Bronx United’s work: our young people (participants, student-athletes), our staff, our coach-mentors, even a board member. Between June 1st and June 11th, Executive Director Andrew So will be sharing 11 conversations with them. 

In episode 5, Andrew speaks with two participants of South Bronx United’s Workforce Development Program and Coaching Corps: Kevin Ramos, 20, and Jesus Acosta Jr., 19. They share their background growing up in the Bronx, what they have gained from the program, and think about their future plans as they enter the workforce.
