Show Notes

Kevin Ervin has always challenged the odds. Hailing from Brooklyn, NY, where he was rarely allowed outside in his dangerous neighborhood, Kevin has dedicated his life to leveling the playing field for those in under-resourced, under-served communities. https://changeforkids.org/

On this episode of The Backpack Show with Chris Brogan and Kerry O'Shea Gorgone, we'll talk with Kevin about his career in youth development and leadership. We'll dive deep into his latest role as Executive Director of Change for Kids, and his plans to expand the organization’s program to many more elementary schools in NYC and ensure every student at every CFK school gets the quality education they deserve.

We'll also meet Bhavneet Chahal, co-founder of https://www.goskills.com, a New Zealand based online education company that provides courses to help people learn practical business skills to get a new job, upskill for their current jobs or to stay relevant in their industry.

Bhav also supports aspiring woman entrepreneurs; she supports two USD $2,000 scholarships each year: "the Scholarship for Women Who Want to be the Boss."

Come get inspired!
