Save Black Boys Life Center "ARK"

Donation protected
Imagine a place that has english, math and science tutoring stations, a social media room, game room, dining area, recording studio, and a counseling area. now imagine it being open 24 hours a day. we have just described The Ark. The ARK will do what so many other facilities can't, simply because there's nothing like it around. The save black boys program understands the real problems of young african american children and teens and addresses them at the root. Because we believe if it's in the root it will be in the fruit. 10,000 black men and children have been killed in the last 714 days. But our focus isn't who the killers are, our focus is the WHY. 77% of black dads don't even visit leaving a staggering almost 80% of black children without a positive male role model. Now imagine a rec/education center staffed with Positive consistent male role models. And now for the proof.. I created the save black boys program in April 2014. BEFORE THE televised KILLING STARTED. before mike brown, eric garner or tamir rice were murdered-before the popular slogans "i can't breathe and black lives matter." And it was out of the same sense of responsibility that i know we all share; I closed my clothing store and turned it into a home-base for the save black boys program and have been pleasantly struggling ever since.
