Dear Friend,
The August Y Gen Entrepreneur is Ruben Cantu.
Ruben is founder of Austin, Texas-based CORE Media Enterprises, which brings socially underexposed issues to light. From a young age, Ruben's family taught him that by giving back to others, you can achieve self-fulfillment and happiness. In high school, Ruben discovered the power of multimedia to inspire and motivate not only himself to do better, but his audience as well. He started CORE Media in response to his need to create thought provoking and empowering media that challenges others to find self-fulfillment and happiness by helping their communities.

At Y Gen Out Loud, we're very fortunate to have Constant Contact as a sponsor of the Y Gen Entrepreneurs series.
Cheers!
