100 Black Men of Metropolitan St. Louis

As our mentees depart New York City and return home to St. Louis, we reflect on a memorable week filled with mentoring, networking, exposure, and skills-building opportunities. From learning about Black history and financial literacy to strengthening their public speaking and leadership skills, this experience was one our youth won't soon forget.

A heartfelt thank you to our mentees for representing so well, to the parents for their trust and support, and to our sponsors whose generosity helped make this life-changing experience possible. The future is bright, and we're excited to see what's next for these young leaders.

✨ What a phenomenal time our young mentees had at the National 100 Black Men Conference in NYC! 🌆 From mastering financial literacy to diving deep into African-American history, and shining in public speaking competitions—these young people are leaving more confident, more connected, and ready to break barriers! 🚀 🙌🏾🎤📚

Our mentees are making memories in New York at the 100 Black Men of America 40th Annual National Conference.

This trip is about more than sightseeing — it is exposure, growth, brotherhood, sisterhood, and showing our young people what is possible. Watching them take in this experience has been truly special.
