Empowering our young men to be the leaders of tomorrow through mentorship


My Brother's Keeper (M.B.K.) provides leadership and mentorship opportunities to 400 boys throughout District 19. Mentors meet weekly with their small groups and once a month as a whole group. The focus of MBK is to show and help guide our young men to act and be seen in our community and in the world. Topics include social and emotional wellness, personal hygiene and respect for others.

The young men of the Clan will acquire the tools and skills needed to become positive, highly motivated, and productive men who are college and career ready.
