I've always believed in the power of mentorship and guidance to unlock potential and it excites me to know that the expansion of this partnership will do just that and will also instill an entrepreneurial spirit in the next generation of leaders."
"This partnership is a 'game changer', pun intended," shares Rap Snacks Foundation Co-Founder and President, Wise Intelligent, who is also known as the front man for the legendary hip hop group, Poor Righteous Teachers. "The Rap Snacks Foundation and our Boss Up initiative was formed to empower youth to realize their full potential and build brighter futures for themselves, their families and their communities. Our partnership with the Huncho Elite 7v7 Program makes complete sense and allows us to expand our impact even further by providing mentorship, guidance and entrepreneurial training, specifically, to aspiring athletes. Joining Huncho Elite's team of offensive, defensive and special teams coaches, Rap Snacks / Boss Up is committed to serving as the financial coach to help this team not only excel on the field, but also thrive in life!"
On behalf of Quavo, Parlae and the Huncho Elite 7v7 team, we are super excited to partner with Rap Snacks and the Rap Snacks Foundation on empowering our young athletes on and off the field," confirms, Renisha Gleaton, president and operations manager of the Huncho Elite 7v7 Program.

Thank you Rap Snacks for helping us groom our guys for long-term excellence."
