How is Your Work Changing The Narrative?
Our work is being effective agents for change within our community. We are passionate about saving the boys of South Carolina and the United States through mentorship and a unique model to provide them with the best education. Young boys become men regardless of if they are taught what kind of man to be. Our work is to teach them how to be productive, trusted and respected leaders. Our work is to make them good men.
