Boxing Out Negativity is a boxing/mentoring program that strives to make youth ready for the real world. They enroll youth ages 8 to 16. Enrollment is free, but students have to “pay” in completing their school required homework, obeying the coach, and general positivity. Coach Derek’s dream is to open a boxing/recreation gym where many more students could be served. It would provide a safe haven for youth in Chicago and build positivity in all aspects of life.
