Khalid Sweeney, founder of Downtown Boxing Gym (DBG), shares his journey from illiteracy and violence to education and leadership. He tells how one person’s question—“What do you want to do with your life?”—changed everything.
Today, DBG helps Detroit’s youth find hope and direction through tutoring, mentoring, and hands-on programs that build literacy, confidence, and community. It’s not a boxing gym—it’s a lifeline for kids who need someone to believe in them.
