Sr. Manager, Public Affairs-Stakeholder Engagement, Walmart®

I have a sincere appreciation for the work of the 100 Black Men of America. The stories from children and parents that I hear every year at their annual conference are extremely heartwarming. The 100 Black Men continuously stand in the gap and practice what they preach in terms of mentorship. Their very engaging and participatory style of mentoring, is changing the lives of youth across the country.

"Mentoring has helped me to..."

“Believe in myself, and know that if I ever need anything, I am never alone.”

“Become more confident in myself and my capabilities.”

“Love myself as opposed to not liking myself because of the stereotypes of Black men; to not only look to lend a hand to help others and do what’s good, but do it because it’s right by God.”

“Become better in life, keep me on track, and believe in myself.”

“What They See Is What They’ll Be.”

100 Black Men of America, Inc. provides long-term mentor relationships for multiple stages of life that expand the possibilities of what can be achieved. We provide expanded educational experiences and advocacy in the areas that significantly affect the community. The 100 addresses systemic issues and bridges opportunity gaps for African American youth. We create environments where children and their families are inspired to dream, challenged to achieve and empowered to be economic stakeholders. We create opportunity.
