The 100 Black Men of Dekalb’s Leadership Academy embodies the phrase “It takes a Village”.

Having accepted me into its Leadership Academy class, they have become a part of my village, pledging to support and mentor as I navigate school and beyond. The one and only ask is to help raise funds to support the educational programming and field trips that they offer.

So, I’m asking the other members of my village to donate what you can to help meet my goal.

Thanks in advance for your love and support. We couldn’t do it without you!

TRIP DATES: July 12-20
