Mentoring with Concerned Black Men’s (CBM) Capital City Cares® Mentoring Initiative is a chance to give back to the community, network, increase your company’s brand recognition and positive perception and have fun. We are looking for African American men to guide African American boys who need help in making positive life decisions.

Capital City Cares Mentors and Mentees

 

There’s approximately 800 weekday hours in a month, we only need 2 -3 of those hours. 

There’s approximately 640 weekend hours in a month, we only need 6 (one Saturday).  

CBM Mentoring times are flexible and there are no major out of pocket expenses. We do all the planning, supply transportation, food and admission costs, you just need to show up and be a friend.

CBM's Mentoring Initiative exposes youths to positive caring men who are making positive contributions to their community through a variety of professions and personal life experiences.
