Stephen Marley, along with his brothers Damian and Julian Marley, founded Ghetto Youths Foundation with a singular mission: to give back.
The three brothers share a dedicated vision, embracing philanthropy in ways that are generationally impactful within global communities where opportunities are scarce. The multi-Grammy Award winners often write about social injustice and equal opportunity for all. The work of Ghetto Youth Foundation takes this message straight into communities in need across the globe.
As early as 1979, a seven-year old Stephen started his musical career as part of the child band the Melody Makers alongside older siblings Ziggy, Sharon, and Cedella. The Melody Makers recorded the song “Children Playing in the Streets,” written by their father Bob Marley. Proceeds from the sales of the song went to the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), launching what has now become a life-long commitment to charitable giving. It is in the Marley DNA.
And today, this legacy lives on in the dedicated work of Ghetto Youths Foundation, representing a fundamental and lasting commitment to universal opportunity.
