Born4Brothers

Born4Brothers Our goal is to fill in the gap for our youth that need a support system that helps them thrive. At-risk boys become at-risk men.

Born4Brothers Program Description

Born4Brothers (B4B), established in 2017 by Founder, Executive Director Tramaine Smith, is a
mentorship program dedicated to the mentoring of middle to high school male students that need
positive male role models and mentors. We work in conjunction with the parents, schools, and
community organizations to be a reliable, consistent and devoted resource for the B4

B mentees. Why We Do It
Studies show when teens have caring adults in their lives, they are less likely to engage in risky
behaviors and focus on their academics. Just one caring adult can help reverse the adverse
effects of traumatic childhood experiences. One of the most
reliable predictors of whether a boy will succeed rests on a single question, “Does he have a man
in his life to look up to?”
Born4Brothers is there to be a listening ear, a guide, an investor in their individual qualities, and a
cheerleader who celebrates their strives toward healthy lifestyles, positive choices and personal
growth. We honor their, at times confusing and difficult journey into manhood. We stand by them
so that they do not have to take this journey alone. Our young scholars recognize and respond
positively to authentic interest and relationship building within the program. How We Do It
The B4B’s program connects with the Born4Brothers Scholars through the following:
• Consistent engagement with scheduled one on ones with mentees
• Home visits with mentee and parents via zoom
• Character development, goal setting, life skills and team building group activities
• Requirements of accountability for school attendance, grades and personal
goals
We expand their world through exposure to a variety of activities like college tours,
volunteerism, community events, and our “Real Talk Series” that brings in positive
influential men from their communities that they can relate to and be inspired.

To every mother in our community — today we celebrate your strength, your sacrifices, your prayers, your late nights, your guidance, and the love you pour into your children and families every single day. Mothers are the backbone of our homes and communities, holding things together even when nobody sees the pressure they carry. From raising future leaders to protecting and nurturing the next generation, your impact goes far beyond words.
On behalf of Born4Brothers and our entire village, we want to say THANK YOU to all the mothers, grandmothers, aunties, guardians, and mother figures who continue to show up with love and resilience. We honor you today and every day. Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing women helping shape our future. 💐❤️

Did you know that mentorship can change the trajectory of an entire city? 📊

The data is in, and it’s powerful: mentorship programs have been shown to lead to a 54% drop in youth arrests. That’s more than just a statistic: that’s the '54% Factor.' It’s the difference between a life of struggle and a future of leadership.

At Born4Brothers, we aren’t just talking about these numbers; we’re building the blueprint. By providing Wilmington’s youth with consistent, positive role models and a stable community, we are actively reducing delinquency and turning potential into progress.

When we invest in these young men, we aren’t just helping them graduate: we’re transforming the future of our streets.

Let’s keep building this future together.
