MENTORING
Mentoring is the cornerstone of what the organization brings to the community by guiding
youth in life experiences, fostering a positive self-perception and self-respect, encouraging
excellence in education, and the pursuit of positive life-long goals. We develop and foster
relationships between members of the 100 Black Men of Los Angeles and Young Black Scholars
in order that this relationship would lead to heightened self-esteem for the youth through
improved family relations, academic success and social and financial responsibility.

Health & Wellness is a vital component of a thriving community. We design health and wellness

well as health issues; implementation of health education workshops and screening, and programs
regarding violence prevention and conflict resolution. The 100 teams up with other non-profit
organizations to promote preventative health strategies deliver screenings and provide education
on prevalent African American diseases.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
We have established programs that teach the Young Black Scholars how to enhance their reasoning
skills and how to develop an entrepreneurial or business plan. We also encourage members to
sponsor Black Expos and economic showcases to educate consumers about products and services
of Black-owned businesses.
