40 Years of Unbroken Commitment to Atlanta’s Youth.

Founded in 1986, 100 Black Men of Atlanta has grown into one of the city's most trusted youth-serving institutions. As a premier chapter of 100 Black Men of America—the nation's most influential African-American mentoring network—we don't just inspire youth; we architect their futures.

Through our flagship Project Success program, we guide middle and high school scholars through a rigorous pipeline of development, STEM/Robotics training, and college prep.

  • Mentoring: Consistent, multi-year guidance from successful Black professionals.
  • Education: Rigorous academic support and SAT prep.
  • Enrichment: Financial literacy, life skills, and broad worldview exposure.
  • Empowerment: Building the confidence to lead in any room.
