Black Man's Mental Health Support (The Brighter LITE)
I am raising funds to purchase property for our community and build a facility for a Black Men Mental Health Retreat Center. This campaign is independent of Taye Uhuru's organization and under the non profit of The Brighter Source group.
The property would be used for the purpose of creating a natural safe space for Black men. We would use several programs to assist in Black men's development, including Brighter LITE,
