I’m glad to see the program is still up & thriving. I’m so glad your program was available when he was growing up. Your group showed him things I wasn’t able to & taught him lessons that his mother couldn’t. I truly appreciate all the effort you do for these young men out here in this cruel world. We started from your Buffalo Soldiers to Mentoring Male Teens In the Hood. Awesome job Mr Miles. Continue with your success!
