Farrah Gray's mission is to educate youth about career opportunities in business, while leading by example in the area of social responsibility. His inspirational spirit and grounded personality have made him a favorite youth motivator on the speaking circuit, where he speaks primarily to conferences, community organizations and churches. He contributes a portion of his income from speaking engagements to the Farrah Gray Foundation, a nonprofit organization that gives grants to after-school and summer programs for inner-city youths and underperforming students. A self-made millionaire by the age of fourteen, Farrah Gray's business ventures have included Kidztel prepaid phone cards, Farr-Out Foods, the NE2W Venture Capital Fund, the Teenscope interactive teen talk show, a comedy show on the Las Vegas Strip and Innercity magazine, a joint venture with Inner City Broadcasting Corporation. He has consulted with the United States Department of Commerce Minority Development Department in the creation of a national youth entrepreneurship incubator. Farrah Gray attributes his success to his unquenchable drive to accomplish his goals, a trait he learned growing up the youngest member of a poor but proud and hard-working single-parent household in inner-city Chicago. He currently divides his time between New York City and Las Vegas, Nevada.
