About BTI

BTI is a community-rooted organization dedicated to helping young people grow through education, mentorship, life skills, and positive enrichment programs.

For the past five years, we have served students and families with a simple mission — to build confidence, strengthen character, and open doors of opportunity for every child who walks through our doors.

What began as a small effort to support local youth has now become a trusted home for tutoring, basketball fundamentals, leadership development, college prep, and life-changing community events.

Our Mission & Vision

To empower youth with the skills, support, and encouragement they need to succeed in school, in life, and in their future.

We envision a community where every young person feels seen, valued, and equipped to reach their fullest potential — academically, socially, and personally.

Our Founders

Jeffrey & Yolanda Amos

Loving the game of basketball and growing up in the projects kept President and Founder of Black Treasurers Investments (BTI), Jeffrey Jerome Amos motivated to be more and do more.

Not realizing meeting his soul mate and Co-Founder of BTI, Yolanda Amos will be the missing piece to where they are today.

Yolanda is a retired Property Manager of a 372 unit complex near downtown Tampa, Florida that brought life skills to her residents that opened doors to homeownership, financial literacy, credit repair, and what it takes to survive to become a better person.

Jeffrey and Yolanda merged their ideas to embrace children and the community to give scholarships, life skills and real estate.
