From Volunteer to Community Champion | Los Angeles Rams News
Description
Lavelle “Yang” Grant, Watts Empowerment Center’s assistant director and Rams’ first-ever “pLAymaker,” is turning community uplift into legacy—one young life at a time. Rising from volunteer to leader, he fuels hope in LA’s toughest neighborhoods, where 66% of youth live below the poverty line. His mentorship programs, inspired by his father’s service, have launched kids to HBCUs—and sent ripples back through the center as former mentees return to inspire the next generation. Grant’s message? Stay focused, keep going—even when the road’s steep—because one person’s grit can change everything.
