May 16, 2022

Greetings all!

We take extreme pleasure in informing you that the Concerned Black Men of Richmond held our 1^st in-person activity in 25 months!

Saturday, April 30^th, we met with 15 young men at Franklin Military Academy to discuss how we could assist them with their goal setting and enhance their life skill development.

They were a very engaged group of young men.  We had each participant to state their name, school, grade level and as well as a hobby or area of interest.  The majority of the group has interest in engineering or other science related fields!  The mentees also discussed how the pandemic has affected them.  Each of them was given a McDonald’s gift card for participating.

 The Concerned Black Men of Richmond are looking forward to tailoring our next session to address the aspirations of our youth. 

Thank each of you for your interest and assistance in providing quality programs for the young men in our community.  It means the world to our community and the youth we serve.

Sincerely,
Timothy Mallory,
President CBM-RVA

Concerned Black Men of Richmond and Youth Visits Black History Museum & Culture Center

March 9, 2020

Greetings,

The Concerned Black Men of Richmond recognized “Black History Month” by visiting the Black History Museum & Cultural Center of Virginia.  We toured the museum on Saturday February 22^th.

There were 2 floors filled with examples of black men, women and children from Virginia that changed our country as well as the world. The visit began with a history of the museum by Adele Johnson, the Executive Director of the BHMVA.  She is very passionate and knowledgeable about each exhibit and gave a brief overview of each one at the center.

 

 

Everyone came away from this visit with a renewed understanding and knowledge of our unique place in the formation of our state and country. 

The Concerned Black Men of Richmond strive each month to stimulate the imaginations and aspirations of our youth through activities such as this.  Thanks to caring people in the community and beyond such as yourselves, we continue to show our mentees that their possibilities truly are limitless. Again, thank you for your support.  It means the world to the Concerned Black Men of Richmond and the youth we serve.

 

Sincerely,
Tim Mallory,
President CBM-RVA

Concerned Black Men of Richmond Holds Social Etiquette Class for Youth

June 9, 2019

 

Greetings all,

The Concerned Black Men of RVA held our “Social Etiquette: Doing it with class” activity on Saturday, May 25^th.  As in the past, it was held at Ristorante La Grotta, a world class fine dining establishment in downtown Richmond.  The event was well attended even though we had to make a schedule change.  Everyone was on time, well dressed and had a great experience putting into practice what we covered earlier in the program.

 The food and staff were great as usual and most of the boys knew what to expect.   They were presented with a four course meal with a choice of entrées consisting of Salmon topped with shrimp, Veal Scaloppini and Filet of Chicken.  For dessert there was cheesecake or chocolate ice cream.

 

This event is a very important facet of our mission in exposing our youth to diverse cultures and enhancing life skills.

We presented Tony and Andrea Capece with a token of our appreciation for their continued support of the Concerned Back Men of RVA! They are truly special friends and their generosity is greatly impacting young men that we serve.

We would like to thank each of you for your patronage and interest in our organization as we come to the close of our program this year!  Your support enabled us to take the boys to Monticello, The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and to the IMAX Theatre in the Science Museum!  The Concerned Black Men of RVA are looking forward to doing greater things next year and we hope that you will spread the word and continue to give assistance to us as we serve our youth.

 

Thank you again
Timothy Mallory
President-CBM-RVA
