CEO/Executive Director/Board Comments
| The issues facing young, African American boys today are increasingly complex. We are resolute in our goal to change lives by helping to create a foundation for future success -- not only academically but in the personal lives of our Kings. We know that through our support, we can help these young men counter the stereotype and break the mold to become leaders and positive contributors in our community. |
