Continuing the Legacy of Those That Came Before Us
The 100 Black Men of Omaha Inc.’s mission is to improve the quality of life for all Omaha citizens and ensure a brighter future for our youth. That has been the organization’s mission since 1995 when a group of concerned men realized that the survival of the community rested on their willingness to join together and be a vehicle for positive change. It remains the organization’s focus today.
Today the 100 is one of over 106 chapters nationally and internationally that make up the 100 Black Men of America, Inc., an alliance of leading African-American men of business, industry, public affairs and government. The organization is funded entirely by private donations and membership dues. Typically, contributions are received from corporations, foundations, individuals and through special fundraising events.
Since its inception, the 100 has remained visible in the Omaha community. Today the organization’s initiatives include Mentoring, Education, Health & Wellness and Economic Development.
