VISION

Our Vision for Our Kings - Our initiative is designed to empower Black boys and young Black men by enhancing their public speaking skills, boosting their self-confidence, and nurturing their self-esteem. We are committed to encouraging them to establish meaningful goals and cultivate core values. Our vision is to instill in our youth the understanding that their true strength and wisdom reside within themselves. Furthermore, we aim to celebrate our rich cultural heritage and redefine the essence of our freedom, fostering a profound sense of pride and purpose. Our Goal is to Empower Our Young Black Men

MISSION

The primary focus and objective of our organization is to establish a platform that provides services, opportunities, and resources for young black boys and young men with access to educational, networking, and career opportunities. Participants will have the chance to receive scholarships, awards, gifts, and other incentives, as well as engage in a series of hands-on workshops designed to enhance self-esteem and confidence while equipping them with tools to overcome various obstacles. These workshops aim to instruct young black men on how to navigate life in a positive, productive, and respectful manner.

Furthermore, we seek to empower these individuals to utilize their interpersonal skills and articulate their voices in confronting emotional challenges such as stress, depression, low self-esteem, peer pressure, and feelings of undesirability. This initiative will facilitate the exploration of their innate gifts and talents within a male pageantry context, catering to the age groups of 10 to 17 and 18 to 24. Our commitment to rediscovering cultural heritage and redefining notions of freedom aligns with these overarching objectives and goals.

THE NEED FOR THIS EVENT

Empowering African American youth to create brighter futures begins
with establishing clear goals and providing practical training. Our
hands-on workshops, led by experienced professionals and mentors,
offer invaluable educational, networking, and career opportunities
specifically tailored for young Black males. We are committed to
inspiring and equipping these individuals with essential life skills that
will not only foster their development as productive citizens but also
prepare them to become future leaders, mentors, and coaches.
Together, we are cultivating a generation prepared to make a lasting
impact
