(MENAFNEditorial)

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

He is the founder of Chicago Village Project (a community organizer and youth advocate organization) who started a Gofundme account to build a 12500 sq. ft. media facility entitled the Dream Factory Media Art Center right in the middle of one of Chicago’s most deadliest and violent areas of the city the Auburn/Gresham community. His mission for this build is to use technology of video streaming the Internet and the massive mobile platform to teach youth and young adult about content management and how to build wealth by marketing it to the world.

CHICAGO IL June 16 2015 - His GoFundMe campaign pitch video starts out “ Hi my name is John F. Kennedy. Yes just like the President.” But this is not the John F. Kennedy who quoted… “Children are the world's most valuable resource and its best hope for the future.” But a middle age African American man who loves children’s just as passionate and wants to change their future. He is the founder of (a community organizer and youth advocate organization) who started a Gofundme account to build a 12500 sq. ft. media facility entitled the right in the middle of one of Chicago’s most deadliest and violent areas of the city the Auburn/Gresham community.

He hopes to build it in all to inspire entrepreneurship and give participants in these communities a way to create wealth for themselves.

According to Kennedy training will be concentrated in several areas these are a few examples:

1 Entertainment (Music & Concerts Film & Video Dance Theater)
2 Gaming (3D Game Development Team Competition)
3 Fashion (Modeling Design Runway Shows)
4 Publishing (eBooks Magazines Newspapers)
5 Sports (Wrestling Boxing Basketball Baseball Football Soccer Skateboarding and BMX Bike Racing

“Our mission is to teach participants how to create and own their content and build a financial base by using today’s technologies of video streaming the Internet and the massive mobile platform to widen the exposure of their products and services to the world” He said.

According to the Center for International Private Enterprise (CIPE.Org) “One of the great benefits of entrepreneurship is the potential for innovation including market-changing new technologies and ways of doing business. While these disruptions can often upend large established companies — as many tech startups have done — the panelists were in agreement that working with entrepreneurs is usually beneficial for everyone (including other entrepreneurs).”

According to CIPE.Org Randall Tavierne of Ernst & Young noted that corporations like his employer see entrepreneurship as good for both society and their bottom line — as successful entrepreneurs will grow their companies into potential clients which is why they work with foundations nonprofits and other organizations to support entrepreneurship programs around the world.

CIPE.Org noted that in the realm of business education the Kellogg School’s Linda Darragh and Amb. (ret) J.D. Bindenagel who has worked with DePaul University’s business school stressed the importance of universities working together on entrepreneurship initiatives.

Such educational collaboration also helps cities like Chicago become attractive hubs for new companies by making sure that they can find and hire the skilled workers they need. Governments are also a vital piece of the ecosystem provided they work together with the private sector to create favorable conditions for entrepreneurs and new businesses.

“This means getting regulations right” said former Illinois Congressman Bob Dold. The point was echoed by Derek Lindblom of the Mayor’s Economic Council in Chicago who emphasized that regulations like business licenses should be designed to minimize the impact on entrepreneurs while still serving the public.

“Engaging Chicago's youth today will take more then just sticking a basketball in their hand they need a variety of things to engage them all year around. And for most It take giving then a reason to get up to meet the day after a night of terror and violence” Kennedy said. “We can not simple tell them to "be good" without putting in front of them real opportunities and means of changing their condition and a direct path away from what the streets offer them which is more violence.”
