Ep. #53 – Yannick Formbor is the founder of Blossom Youth, an organization dedicated to promoting education for youth through sports/basketball in Africa.

Listen as he shares his journey from Cameroon to the United States on a basketball scholarship and how he’s helping other kids possibly do the same thing.
