La'Teef Pyles, a 28-year-old barber in Atlanta, found a simple way to mentor the children who live near his business.
After seeing neighborhood children shooting hoops into makeshift goals, La'Teef set up a basketball court outside of his store. "They come to the shop every day, about 10 or 15 of them, to just play ball all day," he says. "It's an open-door policy in my barbershop. They come in and talk to me about whatever issues they have, and I just try to be somebody that listens to them and gives them positive advice."
