PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

president

I am proud and honored to serve as president of 100 Black Men Las Vegas. This organization is special because it is comprised of successful men from many walks of life committed to giving back to our youth and community. These are exciting times as we prepare for significant internal and external growth. The need to assist our youth and community is paramount as we fight to overcome financial, health, educational, and racial challenges.

Our mission is to “create environments where children and their families are inspired to dream, challenged to achieve and empowered to become self-sufficient shareholders in the community.”

It is my goal to ensure that 100 Black Men Las Vegas provide programs and support that will foster generational advancement.

My vision for the future is to:

  • develop and implement programs that provide social, mental and career development;
  • advocate for our youth to overcome disparities in education, discrimination, injustice, and inclusion;
  • increase the level of sponsorship into the organization;
  • collaborate with organizations with like goals to have a more cohesive impact;
  • become recognized as an influential and impactful organization in our community; and
  • establish a staffed location for 100 Black Men Las Vegas.

We live in a time where our youth are confused, afraid, and unsure about their future. It is up to us to provide support, answers, and pathways to success. We all must be the change that we wish to see in the world.

Mentoring is and always will be at our core, yet we must also support small business and economic empowerment. We will respond to the needs of our community with scholarships, structured programs and through strategic collaborations.

We are very fortunate to have an Executive Advisory Council that is committed to making our community better. This council consists of senior executives from Caesars Entertainment, MGM Resorts, Wells Fargo, Cox Communications, NV Energy and College of Southern Nevada with more companies interested in joining.

With the support of our membership, executive advisory council and the community, we exemplify our moto “What They See is What They’ll Be”.
