The event, which T.I. created to empower and uplift urban youth, was a summer camp dedicated to molding youth into future leaders.  After completing the camp, all of the attendees were given a certificate as well as a laptop.

T.I. , along with Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed also gave a recent speech at the ceremony where he spoke to the young audience and reminded them of the importance of hard work, and encouraged them to maintain a positive work ethic throughout their life.

“The work that you do right now, the results aren’t always seen immediately, but it will pay off in the end,” T.I. stressed to the audience.

After surprising them with the laptop, he added that the laptops weren’t a gift, but instead a reward for their hard work and dedication.
