MEET THE FOUNDER
Rolando Pisia: Founder of REKON Youth Foundation
**"At REKON, we believe every young person has the potential to rise above adversity and step into their purpose. 🌟 Growing up, I saw firsthand how tough life can get, but I also learned the power of support, creativity, and opportunity. That’s why I started REKON Youth Foundation in 2019—because every young person deserves a chance to discover their greatness.
Through creativity, culture, and connection, we’ve impacted over 20,000 youth, offering skills like music production, DJing, street art, and leadership development. But more than that, we’ve created a space where young people feel seen, valued, and empowered to overcome challenges and dream big.
REKON is about fanning the spark of potential in every young person and watching them light up their world. 🔥
Thank you for joining us on this mission—together, we’re shaping brighter futures."**
