“The biggest positive change I've noticed in my son is he's more outgoing and willing to do things he's never experienced before. He smiles more and has so much confidence.

Where I saw a change was his trip to Africa. He didn't want to go and he came back as a young man who had so much to say about his experiences in Africa.

These types of programs are exposing these young men to the real world and not what they see on social media. Providing mentors that can explain a paycheck or how to treat a girl on a date or helping find a trade school that fits their needs is pivotal in keeping these young people on the right path in life.

I'm beyond thankful for the KB Foundation and all the mentors for being the positive change he needed in his life. As a single mother the correct role model is so important.”
