Recently, Tony has started a non-profit called The AMBASSADOR PROJECT INT'L. The goal of API is to reach young males of color in underserved communities from father-absent homes to help them understand their worth and value. Many times in father absent homes, there is a lack of affirmation from the father figure due to the absence of the father. Statistics prove that the absence of the father in a home can create insecurity and a sense of worthlessness in the heart of a child. Too often, children grow up with out the affirmation necessary due to the lack of the presence of the father. Many other areas in the life of a child are detrimentally affected by the absence of the father. API desires to help with essential principles that will help the young male child.
