Do you know a young Black man with a powerful story to tell? Fruits of Ali is here to help, offering a free virtual empowerment program, the Virtual Story Lab, that will enable young Black men in New Jersey ages 14-18 to find their voices, tell their stories, and change their lives.
SHARE
Are you an experienced storyteller who wants to give back to the community? What if someone had given you the space, support, and tools to tell your story when you were younger? How might that have shaped your journey? Now is your chance to share your gifts and help build legacies.

Spread the word. Have you ever met a young Black man who carries untold stories—stories of struggle, resilience, and potential waiting to be unlocked? Fruits of Ali’s Virtual Story Lab is here to provide that key. It takes a village, and we need your support.
