The Man Up Club

The Man Up Club is a non-profit mentoring and leadership development program that helps young black males to become men of character. Through a personal development approach, the Man Up Club places a significant emphasis on academic discipline, the development of social skills, life skills, civic responsibility, and peer-to-peer accountability.

The Man Up Club empowers young black males to make positive life decisions while also preparing them for post-secondary education at a college or trade school. The Man Up Club provides a secure environment for these young men to form strong long-term relationships with mentors, a brotherhood to gather, and moderated discussions about life issues, family dynamics, and notably dealing with fatherlessness. The Man Up Club's mission is to equip and prepare these young men to compete as valued members of society.
