Usher
Usher Raymond IV went by his full name back in the ’80s while attending the Boys and Girls Club after school program in Chattanooga, TN. The multi-platinum selling recording artist believes he caught the mentoring bug while being mentored himself. Aside from shepherding artists like the wildly successful Justin Beiber through the music industry, he founded Usher’s New Look Foundation (UNLF), an organization dedicated to ensuring young people “have the tools they need to be global leaders”. Usher has said, he believes in the power of service and wants to promote the potential of our youth.
