Your Thoughts . . .
Our Founder is writing a book in order to raise funds to continue to build our programs and services, titled, “If I knew then what I know now” Past presents for the Future. It is a book that is made up of excerpts of people’s thoughts/ philosophies on areas of manhood that they believe would possibly help someone, from a wide array of topics.
