Why join the 100 BMOGC?

Join the 100 to become a change agent in the community. We work to empower youth through our 4 pillars: Health & Wellness, Mentoring, Education, and Economic Development. Mentoring is the core service delivery for the 100. We are the largest network of African American male mentors in the nation. We work hard to influence and transform lives in our communities.

Candidates:

The ideal candidate is demonstrably community driven with a history of service and volunteerism. We look for candidates who are active in their community and are committed to continue their efforts alongside the 100. We don't want candidates who are solely interested for the social aspect of being a 100 member, we want workers. Our motto is "what they see is what they'll be". Our goal is to present our community with hard working, successful Black males so they are inclined to emulate us.

The process:

First, you need to show up to our events and support our efforts. Attending our programs is a prerequisite for membership consideration. Next, you find a sponsor who will recommend you into the organization. A sponsor is a 100 member who is in good standing with the organization. Finally, you complete an interest form and submit a payment of $50 that covers your background check. If selected, you will be called for an interview. Subsequent the interview and application being presented to the executive board, you will be presented to the general body for a final vote.
