Comments Off on Concerned Black Men, Richmond Holds Manners Session Featuring Elizabeth Kirven
November 6, 2017
Greetings and salutations!!
We are excited about the “Kick Off” of our new mentoring sessions which started last month. Our first session started with an in depth discussion on manners. The topic, entitled “Manners, Where Have They Gone?” was coordinated by our Past President, Wayne Rachel, Sr. This event was held at the 4th Police Precinct in Richmond and featured Ms. Elizabeth Kirven with the Corvel Corporation in Richmond, Virginia.
There were 8 mentees and 7 mentors that participated. It was an interactive program where we engaged the youth on the important role that proper manners will play in their lives. They were required to speak as well as write about how they could be impacted utilizing the techniques discussed.
Again we would like to thank each person and organization that contributed to the Concerned Black Men of Richmond, Inc. Your contributions have been instrumental in ensuring that we can continue to provide programs to young men in the Richmond area. We hope we can count on your patronage in the future.
Sincerely,
Tim Mallory
President, CBM-RVA

The Concerned Black Men, Richmond Chapter, attended the 29th Annual 2nd Street Festival held on October 7-8, 2017 in the Historic Jackson Ward Community. This festival celebrates the rich history and culture of Jackson Ward and it is a veritable Who’s Who in Art’s, Politics, and Social entities throughout central Virginia. We welcomed the opportunity to inform the local community about our mentoring program for our youth. The interaction with many city and state officials such as Chief Alfred Durham, Senator Jennifer McClellan, Delegate Delores McQuinn, among many others that are campaigning for state offices was great exposure for our chapter. There was also a strong interest in mentoring shown by many as well as parents wanting mentoring for their children.
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.

Dear Fellow Sponsors and Supporters of CBM:
We are excited to begin our new session for 2017-2018 and would like to thank each person who contributed to the success of our program.
This past summer, three of our youth, graduated from high school and elected to go on to college! We are excited and proud of the choices they have made to pursue higher education.
CBM actually had the privilege of mentoring two of these young men since the 5th grade and we are delighted that we were able to help stimulate them culturally, academically, and socially.
Ramone Jeffers graduated from Garner Magnet High School in Raleigh, NC. He is attending North Carolina Central University majoring in Sports Medicine.
Torian Jones graduated from Richmond Community High School. He is attending Old Dominion University majoring in English.
Timothy Banks graduated from Franklin Military Academy. He is attending Virginia State University majoring in Mass Communication.
All of these young men exemplify what we are trying to accomplish with our programs. Thank you all for your contributions through participation and or monetary donations. We hope that The Concerned Black Men of Richmond can count on each of you for continued support. You are providing an invaluable service to the community and the world.
Sincerely,
Tim Mallory
CBMRVA President
