Youth Mentoring:
Four for the Future
Our youth mentoring programs serve girls and boys in grades 6–12 across Brunswick, New Hanover and Pender counties. We are Black men who show up, from the first meeting to college acceptance. Four for the Future is the national framework every chapter works from.
Mentoring
School-based mentoring at seven schools across three counties: six middle schools and John T. Hoggard High School in New Hanover County. Saturday Success Academy serves grades 8–12. Members give up to four hours a month.
Education
Success Academy runs August through June, offering SAT prep, creative writing, and college visits. Scholarships ranging from $1,000 to $2,500 help eligible graduates pursue education at trade and technical schools, two-year colleges, or four-year colleges and universities.
Economic Empowerment
Financial literacy taught directly, and roundtables where students hear from local leaders who built something.
Health and Wellness
An annual summit open to the community. In 2025 it drew 108 people, 25 screenings and more than 70 blood pressure checks.
