Charles C. Primas Sr – Board Member

Born the son of a Detroit Legend Charles remembers growing up around the core leadership of the city of Detroit. Mayors, judges and other city leaders were frequent visitors to his childhood home. So he grew up around people who loved and led Detroit and therefore is present to what Detroit was and is committed to being the best place in the world for a child to grow up in.

Charles says that serving on the AYE Board is an opportunity to make a real and lasting difference for our youth and also to engage and support community-minded leaders who are dedicated to a world works for all youth by ensuring that they are supported, loved and that they matter!

Charles is currently leading the initiative called “Detroit Boyz Rock!“

Which is dedicated to creating a world where young black men and boys are empowered to create and define for themselves what being a man is and they are acutely aware of and inspired by their own personal magnificence and know that what the world tells them they should be is not who they are.
