The Concerned Black Men of Richmond started the session off by attending the 30th Annual 2nd St Festival in Historic Jackson Ward October 6th & 7th. We manned our usual booth next to the voter registration booth on Community Row. There was a lot of interest shown in our organization and a couple of former members stopped by as well. A few prominent politicians visited our booth and it was nice to thank Senator Jennifer McClellan in person for her assistance with the Capitol Tour that we went on last session. There was a lot of interest shown by parents many expressed their appreciation for what we are doing in the community.
The 2nd Street Festival has provided The Concerned Black Men of Richmond with excellent exposure for a number of years and we hope the relationship will continue for years to come.
Thank you to all of you for your interest and patronage to our organization. Your support means the world to the youth that we serve.
Sincerely,
Tim Mallory, President CBM-RVA

Greetings all,
Last month the Concerned Black Men of Richmond concluded our 2017-18 year with a cookout at Dorey Park. The food and fellowship with parents, mentees, donors and brothers was enjoyed by all. There is 1 graduate this year in the youth corps, Da’Vontae Ballou. He has been a member since the 5th grade and graduated from Armstrong High School. Da’Vontae will be attending J Sargent Reynolds Community College in the fall.
There were 2 of last year’s graduates in attendance, Torian Jones and Ramone Jeffers. They shared their college experiences and it was great to see them achieving their goals!
We would like to take an opportunity to thank each of you for the interest and support you have shown our organization. This year we even got our van painted and it looks great!
Your support is instrumental in ensuring that we can continue to provide lessons and experiences that positively impact the young men we serve. Please feel free to make suggestions on how we can improve our organization.
Again, thank you all for your assistance.
Sincerely,
Tim Mallory, President CBM-RVA

Greetings,
The Concerned Black Men of RVA recently conducted our Etiquette Pt1 event. The event was held on Saturday the 14th at Franklin Military Academy. It is a prerequisite to the LaGrotta Ristorante fine dining outing that will be in May. We discussed proper dress, table settings and how they are expected to conduct themselves in this type of environment. The Concerned Black Men of RVA have been doing this since 2011 and have progressed to a point where the mentees are instructing each other on how to tie neckties!
We also played the movie “Courageous” which illustrates choices, consequences and fatherhood. This is the 2nd time we have shown this movie to our mentees and it was received very well. Afterwards the boys were treated to lunch at McDonald’s.
We would like to again thank each of you who have donated to the Concerned Black Men of RVA. Your support is an integral part to the success of our mission. We strive each month to engage our youth with life enhancing experiences that will assist them in all their future endeavors. Your support means the world to the youth that we serve!
Sincerely,
Timothy Mallory
