100 Black Men of Greater Little Rock
About 100 Black Men of Greater Little Rock
The overall concept of The 100 began in 1963 in New York City when a group of concerned African American men began to meet to explore ways of improving conditions in their community. These visionaries included businessmen and industry leaders such as David Dinkins, Robert Mangum, Dr. William Hayling, Nathaniel Goldston III, Livingston Wingate Andrew Hatcher, and Jackie Robinson. Since inception, the vision has materialized to be shared by more than 10,000 members reaching over 125,000 underserved, underrepresented minority youth annually. Our motto, “What They See Is What They’ll Be,” very succinctly expresses how our programmatic services rendered to disadvantaged, disenfranchised and low-income youth and families positively change their life trajectory. The Greater Little Rock 100 Black Men Chapter was established in 1999. For twenty years the Greater Little Rock Chapter has served its community through mentoring, service, and programs.
The mission of the 100 Black Men of Greater Little Rock Chapter is to improve the quality of life within our communities through Mentoring, Education, Health and Wellness and Economic Development.
This vision of the 100 Black Men of Greater Little Rock is to strengthen our youth’s mental, physical, and moral development through our programs while building collective partnerships.
