Alejandro Buxton had the "most amazing experience" of his life during a recent segment on 'The Drew Barrymore Show.'⁠ ⁠ The 13-year-old CEO and founder of 'Smell of Love Candles' was invited for Black Entrepreneurs Day, created by FUBU founder Daymond John in 2020 to promote Black-owned businesses.⁠ ⁠ Buxton was inspired to start his business due to his mother’s love of candles and the desire to find a solution that would be less triggering for her headaches and his asthma. ⁠ ⁠ The young entrepreneur's story led to him getting an invite to the live event, receiving a $10,000 check for his business, and getting advice from Daymond himself.⁠ ⁠ “Daymond gave me really good advice and I’m really grateful to Drew and her staff for everything they gave me on the show.”⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in bio for the full story. // #BlackBusinesses #YoungEntrepreneurs
