Terrance Tucker is the founder of the T.U.C.K. Project, a mentoring
program aimed at promoting male achievement throughout the
Columbia, SC and Augusta, GA regions. The T.U.C.K. Project was
founded in 2016 with just five mentees, and has successfully grown to
approximately 170 mentees and 15 committed volunteers. An extremely
gifted and engaging motivational speaker, Terrance has spoken at over
200 middle schools, high schools, and colleges; as well as five federal
prisons and juvenile detention centers around the South Carolina,
Georgia and North Carolina region. Mr. Tucker has also delivered over
60 keynote addresses. In addition to motivational speaking, Terrance
teaches life skills courses at two South Carolina federal prisons.
Terrance has devoted countless hours to ensuring that these young men
have the tools to recognize and achieve their maximum potential. In
addition to a focus on youth, the T.U.C.K. Project hosts a monthly
outreach program where clothing and food are donated to the homeless
community in downtown Columbia, SC. In doing so, he is
demonstrating the importance of reaching back while reaching ahead.
