The Official Snack Brand of Hip Hop and its nonprofit organization, the Rap Snacks Foundation, partner to support the Huncho Elite 7v7 youth football team to mentor, motivate and provide entrepreneurship training to help prepare for NIL deals.

ATLANTA, April 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Rap Snacks, the "Official Snack Brand of Hip Hop" and its nonprofit organization, the Rap Snacks Foundation, has joined forces with hip hop superstars and co-owners of the Huncho Elite 7v7 Program, Quavo (The Migos) and Parlae (Dem Franchize Boyz), to help young athletes unlock their potential  and guide them toward success on and off the field. Designed to mentor, motivate and develop youth, while teaching and coaching the game of 7v7 football, the Huncho Elite 7v7 Program provides resources, scholarships and opportunities for players as well as the guidance they need to excel in life. The partnership with Rap Snacks and the Rap Snacks Foundation, through its Boss Up initiative, adds a pivotal layer of entrepreneurship training to the program that will provide guidance on personal branding, financial literacy, marketing, and media training. Most importantly, the partnership will help Huncho Elite players prepare for, and properly monetize l Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) deals, potentially, coming their way.

"I am incredibly proud to partner with Quavo and Parlae in support of the Huncho Elite 7v7 youth football program," shares Rap Snacks Founder  and CEO, James Lindsay. "This collaboration represents the intersection of two powerful forces: the influence of hip hop culture and the potential for positive change and advancement within our youth. I've always believed in the power of mentorship and guidance to unlock potential and it excites me to know that the expansion of this partnership will do just that and will also instill an entrepreneurial spirit in the next generation of leaders."

"This partnership is a 'game changer', pun intended," shares Rap Snacks Foundation Co-Founder and President, Wise Intelligent, who is also known as the front man for the legendary hip hop group, Poor Righteous Teachers. "The Rap Snacks Foundation and our Boss Up initiative was formed to empower youth to realize their full potential and build brighter futures for themselves, their families and their communities. Our partnership with the Huncho Elite 7v7 Program makes complete sense and allows us to expand our impact even further by providing mentorship, guidance and entrepreneurial training, specifically, to aspiring athletes. Joining Huncho Elite's team of offensive, defensive and special teams coaches, Rap Snacks / Boss Up is committed to serving as the financial coach to help this team not only excel on the field, but also thrive in life!"

On behalf of Quavo, Parlae and the Huncho Elite 7v7 team, we are super excited to partner with Rap Snacks and the Rap Snacks Foundation on empowering our young athletes on and off the field," confirms, Renisha Gleaton, president and operations manager of the Huncho Elite 7v7 Program. "This collaboration is so important not only because it will offer training and valuable life skills that extend far beyond the game of football, but will also equip them with the tools they need to confidently seize opportunities for growth and success, personally and professionally. Thank you Rap Snacks for helping us groom our guys for long-term excellence."

The Huncho Elite 7v7 youth football team and Rap Snacks will participate in the 7th Annual Huncho Day experience hosted by Quavo, which will take place in metro Atlanta on Sunday, April 28, 2024, at Quavo's alma mater, Berkmar High School (405 Pleasant Hill Rd., Lilburn, GA, 30047). In addition to showcasing Huncho Elite players, the event will feature exciting exhibition games, a Huncho Fun Zone for kids as well as football and basketball youth clinics and combines supported by the Atlanta Hawks and the Atlanta Falcons. Huncho Day proceeds will benefit the Rocket Camp, a 10-week summer violence intervention program powered by The Rocket Foundation, led by the Offender Alumni Association and geared toward justice-involved youth, ages 13-17.
