Former President Barack Obama had a message for dozens of Chicago public school students who are involved in youth-serving organizations: Think big and take a team approach to solving community problems.

The former president appeared at an Obama Foundation event along with Ayo Dosunmu, a point guard for the Chicago Bulls, and a pair of student leaders.

Obama recounted moving to Chicago after college and starting out as a community organizer. Barrack Obama, Former President, said  “What I realized was the most important thing I could do as a young person was try to find common ground, try to find other folks who are concerned with the same things I was interested in. Form relationships of trust and then try to start working together to solve some of these problems, one problem at a time”
