2016 500 Black Tuxedos Event

December 17, 2016 @ 12:00 pm - 6:00 pm

On December 17, 2016 we will have the 500 Black Tuxedo Event.  The purpose of the event is to show our young Brothers that they can dress up their lives before they mess up their lives. I strongly believe that we can make the 500 number but we need older men to register or donations for men that can’t pay the $75 for a youth.

The men pay a $75 tuxedos rental fee to sponsor a boy to participate. To sign up they must go to Torrence’s house of Threads on 47th & Fond Du Lac Avenue.  We have a phenomenal day planned for our young brothers and we strongly believe that it will be very rewarding for our mentors as well. By giving these young brothers a chance to put on a tux and parade in the streets of Milwaukee we open up their whole perspective of life. As I talk to young Brothers in the hood, many did not think that they are worthy of wearing a tuxedo and going downtown for a Black Tie Dinner. I say let’s show them different. Other than the tuxedo rentals all other expenses are covered.
