about

Hello, my name is Antwaun Banks, proud Founder and CEO of Product of the Project (POP). Blessed with a second chance after living a fast-paced lifestyle, I was moved to start POP with the mission in mind to transform the lives of youth through mentoring, counseling, and coaching. In the last two years, we have grown and expanded. We have been gifted with the opportunity of working with Peoria Public Schools, DCFS, Illinois Department of Juvenile Justice, and Juvenile Probation. Together, we can rally our resources and make our next generation of leader's outlook on life bright and progressive.
