Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it

Proverbs 22:6

The Directors

The power of belief and conviction that the founders have in this movement is what makes Free My People Inc, an impactful movement that can truly contribute to creating a change in the world.

Four hip-hop music-loving individuals, Jerron "Poppa Locc" Lewis, Jeff "Cuzn Jed" Jackson-Stewart, Rod "Hawk" Matthews, and the late Michael “Iron Mike D” Diggs, with rich corporate experience and entrepreneurial track records, got together to give shape to their ideology of creating opportunities for young people to rise above circumstances and carve a path for themselves in this fiercely competitive world.

Free My People Inc, was formed with the intent of giving opportunities to young people to establish their life and career in the mainstream by providing technical skills, mentorship, and coaching services to help guide them on a path to success.

With expert industry knowledge and experience of close to five decades, having had a stint with Fortune 500 companies as well as small businesses, Jeff and Rod are technical stalwarts with an established reputation of being subject matter experts in the IT industry.

What makes their experience unique is their strong background and experience in the hip-hop culture as well. They have worked extensively in the hip-hop scenario as artists, producers, and even as record label executives. Both Jeff and Rod bring their own unique experiences in the field of music to the table and have discovered a way to put their passion and profession together.

With this unique model of imparting education through embracing music, hip-hop, in particular, these two stalwarts aim to carve a niche for Free My People Inc,. Free My People Inc, not only aims to educate but also kindle the spark in every young child to give shape to their dreams, whatever it might be.
