AMWS, April 27, 2024, Atlanta – Generation Alpha today declared, #NoPoverty2030 as their personal, possible mission. Representing a “Whole of Government” approach to economic security, 27 of 100 new “secret millionaires” planted their Money-n-the-Bank vision into a replicable reparations trust.  One Gen Alpha winner responded to Benjamin Franklin’s “Time is Money” aphorism with “bending time” as a whole new way of making their money work for them.

Each year since 9-11-2006, Youth Achievers USA Institute (YouthUSA), a Delaware incorporated 501c3 public charity has reported to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on its program accomplishments, along with money it received and purposes for which charitable revenue was used.  Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about YouthUSA center on its financial assets.  Based on Money-n-the-Bank responses from two Sub-Saharan African countries, YouthUSA anticipates an increase in its charitable revenue between 2024 and 2030. Budget projections rely on needs assessed in cooperation with “Generation Alpha Secret Millionaires.”   

Youth Achievers USA Institute 2023 Program Accomplishments

On the 2022 IRS 990-PF, one foundation reported $23,221,054,512 (billion) in contributions, gifts, grants, etc.  Interest on savings and temporary cash investments totaled $13,436,826 (million).  The foundation granted $6,806,925,000 (billion) to a single public charity and treated a -$680,692,500 (million) portion of grants paid as a distribution of corpus under treasury  Reg. 53.4942(A)3 for a total contribution of $6,126, 232,500 (billion).

Youth Achievers USA Institute (YouthUSA), a 501c3 public charity committed to United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 1 (No Poverty) and 17 (Partnerships), seeks to demonstrate atonement for the neglect of children through a mentor-protégé relationship with the model foundation.   The U.S. charity proposes to #BeTheBridge between good intentions and sustainable goals.  Historically, YouthUSA has filed IRS 990-EZ since its incorporation of 9-11-2006. The corporate logic has been to learn to drive the bus empty before loading it with children.  The charity has never secured 100% funding for its projected $500,000 annual budget because the assessment reflected a need for more time at less expense.

In 2023, YouthUSA funded its FREE AFRICAN SOCIETY (FAS2) brand with a VISION OF THE FUTURE.   The historic brand was allegedly acquired from trustees with a “Widow’s Mite.”  The late Evelyn Walker Armstrong, MLS, reinvested family values to seed a modest Charitable Remainder Trust.   News reports on the loss of a nearly $100 million pension fund for retired ministers of the African Methodist Episcopal Church diverted church priorities from pressing global issues such as SDG 1, No Poverty.  The Historical Black Church and its corporation has been challenged to declare #NoPoverty2030 #MissionPossible in the name of #BlackJesus as its faith contribution toward HEALING THE SOUL OF AMERICA.  From a YouthUSA perspective, the problem presents an immediate opportunity for Generations A and Z to learn to do better.

Program 1

THE ANNUAL YOUTH ACHIEVEMENT AWARDS (AYAA) is a proprietary circular capacity building program created by YouthUSA Founder Stephanie A. Walker Stradford.  The program uses Microsoft Sharepoint collaboration software to sustain its charitable operations.  In 2023, YouthUSA sustained its support for United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #1 through its promotion of the #NoPoverty2030 social media hashtag. YouthUSA embraces the corporate motto, I believe I can achieve whatever I believe I can achieve. This motto promotes time as the single most valuable asset in achieving the YouthUSA and United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Our 2023 activities responded to a needs assessment among potential economic beneficiaries from Generations Z and A. “We NEED more money!” they said.  Global pandemic from COVID-19 drastically challenged our efforts to achieve #NoPoverty2030. For the first time in YouthUSA history, the organization reached out to potential international partners to provide Learn-2-Earn (L2E) technical assistance in Lesotho, Africa.  One LEARN-2-EARN grantee received unrestricted capacity building grant funding towards future World Bank projects.

 

Program 2

THE AMERICAN MENTOR WIRE SERVICE (AMWS) is a communications asset of Youth Achievers USA Institute. AMWS operates as a news service via Internet. Production of eighteen (18) YouTube videos and seventeen 17 Blog posts augmented Facebook, Twitter, and Linked-In social/business networking. AMWS 2023 program spending supported Black Wall Street support for #BlackLivesMatter. Targeted social media advocacy to The White House Domestic Policy Advisor, The Obama Foundation, The U.S. Black Chambers of Commerce, The African Methodist Episcopal Church and the Holy See promotes a vision for Economic Inclusion as a pathway for 2.4 billion believers to engage in achieving #NoPoverty2030.

Program 3

The J.D. and Laurena Walker Fund (JDLWF) serves as a development program, identifying SUFICIENT PROVISION for COMMON VISION. The fund includes $10,000 at-risk investment at Chicago's Ariel Investments and $100,000 in FDIC Insured bank assets toward an endowment for sustaining #NoPoverty2030. A replicable $100 million endowment is demonstrated by assessed needs of 100 Generation Alpha beneficiaries, each with a projected $1 million Whole Village Trust, economically including 20 caring adults, each with a minimum net worth of $50,000 by June 9, 2030. JDLW 2023 program spending of $3042 supported cash and hardware grants. The program invested in development of virtual (Internet sites)  and real property (GrandMentors’ House), compounding value to inherited resources from the J.D. and Laurena Walker Family. In 1996, Laurena Puriefoy Walker invested faith in the YouthUSA community as its first Grand Mentor. Youth Achievers USA Institute engages current and new directors in codifying this edification for elders in the YouthUSA Corporate Village. #PlayTheGame is under development as a process for inclusion in shared ownership of The New Stradford Hotel Upon Black Wall Street. Outcomes are yet to be determined.

 

Program 4

TheEnterpriZe Social Enterprise Program - The program modeled a U.S. Small Business Administration Certified veteran-owned limited liability company (LLC).  Equity Members assessed 100,000 LLC Member Units at $10/par. Valuation is based on accounts receivable from a $10 m USD Sole Source Federal contract. The LLC contracted with YouthUSA and small trust clients to develop shared-owner employment opportunities. Assessing the need for an Internet presence to support global social enterprise development, YouthUSA established www.FreeAfricanSociety.net  and www.FAS2.net  .  The sponsored site integrates multimedia blogs with Artificial Intelligence to support multi-year engagement for living generations.  Crowdfunding strategies are deployed within capacity building tools to ensure inclusion of Generation Alpha Secret Millionaires. The program incubates veteran and historically disadvantaged small business partners in making business as usual a practice of the past. Outcomes include social enterprise PROVISION for UN SDG 1 #NoPoverty2030.
