Raising Kings event in Wilmington hopes to inspire next generation of business leaders
Students from Delaware's largest school district came together for the 12th annual Raising Kings conference at the Police Athletic League of Wilmington on Feb. 29.
The event, organized by One Village Alliance in collaboration with the Red Clay Consolidated School District, Boost 26, Jobs For Delaware Graduates and the Delaware Division of Public Health, aimed to inspire young boys to become leaders, entrepreneurs and influencers of tomorrow.
Every year Raising Kings presents local business and community leaders as positive male role models for students. The conference features a range of activities, including inspirational remarks from invited speakers and small-circle discussions between students and panelists. This year's event held a basketball shootout to cap off the day.
