    Alan Lazaros and Kevin Palmieri are the founders of Next Level University, a Global Top 100 Success and Personal Development Podcast with 2,450+ episodes and more than 1 million listens in over 180 countries. They’re very grateful for their progress and successful journey, but that’s FAR from where they started. Alan and Kevin both grew up without fathers in a small town. Alan’s father was killed in a car accident when he was 2 and Kevin didn’t meet his father until he was 27. Growing up without positive male role models was hard and Father’s Day was always a particularly difficult day for them. They created the Next Level Hope Foundation and the Annual Father’s Day Event so that they could transform a traditionally sad day into a fun event for children of single parents. This year’s annual event will be held on Sunday June 28th from 1 to 3pm EST at the Greendale YMCA in Worcester, MA. All children of single parents are welcome to participate in this free event, and we will have sports, music, arts & crafts, face painting, food, and more! If you'd like to donate, please do. There is no donation too small. And if you'd like to attend, please RSVP at our website below: https://www.nextleveluniverse.com/next-level-hope-foundation Thank you so much! -Alan and Kevin

    Kevin & I grew up without fathers... My father was killed in a car accident when I was 2, and Kevin didn't meet his father until age 27. Growing up without a positive male role model wasn't easy, and we both witnessed the challenges of being a single parent firsthand. That's why we started the Next Level Hope Foundation, a charity created to give back to kids with single parents. We host 2 events per year, one on Father's Day and another during the Holidays. As of right now, we're quickly gearing up for our Annual Holiday Event, where we rent out the entire gym at the Greendale YMCA in Worcester, MA from 1 to 3 pm EST on Saturday, December 20. All children of single parents are welcome and encouraged to participate in this free event, as we will have sports, music, arts & crafts, face painting, food, and more! If you'd like to attend, please RSVP at our website below as soon as possible: https://www.nextleveluniverse.com/next-level-hope-foundation/ And if you'd like to donate, thank you! We don't care if it's $5 or $500, all contributions help! Thank you so much, and we hope you and your family have a wonderful Holiday season! With love and gratitude, - Alan & Kevin
