Embrace It

Meet Arlondo, one of our incredible young men and the 2026 Middle School Mentee of the Year! He joined us 2 years ago, and will start high school in the fall.

We are asking for the community’s help in supporting Arlondo as he works to reach his fundraising goal. Over the past year, he has worked incredibly hard serving the community through volunteering in many different capacities while continuing to grow into an outstanding young man and leader.

Thank you all for always showing up for our youth and believing in their future. Every donation, and word of encouragement truly makes a difference! 💙💛

Because of our AMAZING community, Koby SURPASSED his goal in less than 24 hours! Not only that, donations are still continuing to roll in!

Thank you all so much for your continued support, generosity, and belief in our amazing young men. Opportunities like this are possible because of YOU. We are beyond grateful! 💙💛 Next stop, ATL ✈️

Our Brunch with Brothers mentees each participate in an individual fundraiser every year, and this year we’re asking our community to help support one of our high school mentees, Koby, who has been part of the program for the past 2 years.

Koby is a great young man, and we would love for our village to show him some encouragement and support. In previous years, a business sponsored his fundraiser, but this year they were unable to so we’re opening it up to the community.

If you feel led to give, no amount is too small. Thank you for continuing to support and pour into our youth 💙💛
