Meet Ashanti Branch:

Ashanti is a key-note speaker, thought leader, and advisor. His work has been featured at SXSW, on CNN with Lisa Ling, in the documentary 'The Mask You Live In', and a documentary about  "American Masculinity". He is a Fulbright Fellow, a Rotary Fellow, a Stanford d.school Fellow, and a 4x Tedx Speaker

Ashanti has been working with youth for over 18 years as the Founder and Executive Director of the Ever Forward Club (EFC), a non-profit organization dedicated to seeing marginalized students graduate high school by providing them emotional tools and mental health support.

Formerly an engineer, Ashanti found his passion while tutoring struggling students from African-American and Latino communities, and seeing 40% of them, heart-breakingly, give up. By fulfilling deeper emotional needs to feel safe, seen and heard, The Ever Forward Club has helped 100% of its student members graduate high school.

We have all heard the famous Gandhi quote, “Be the change you want to see in the world.” If I’m being honest, there are so many times I look at something that I know is wrong in the world and say, I wish that was different, or I wish someone would do something about that. 

What I love most about Ashanti is that he is actually doing the work. He saw a problem, a need, and then did something. And then he kept doing. So much so that his work has gone from passion to mission to movement. It is people like Ashanti who remind me that “we are the people we’ve been waiting for.” That the things that we want to change are up to us AND in OUR POWER to change. And that one person, yes one person, can truly make a world of difference.
