MENTEES SPENT TIME ON THE FLOOR AT CAVS GAME

Monday, February 13, 2023, The 100 Black Men of Greater Cleveland, Inc. (100BMOGC, Inc.) took the mentees to a Cavaliers game, where they had fun being entertained by individuals of the Cavs organization. The night started with the Cavs representatives escorting the kids to an area in Rocket Mortage Fieldhouse to an excellent reception with food, fun and soft drinks. At 6:30 p.m., the mentees were entertained with BINGO, and it was a lot of fun watching the children make their way around the room, asking for answers and meeting everyone. For over 25 years, the 100 BMOGC, Inc. has prepared young men in Cleveland for college, careers, and community service.

100 Black Men’ mentoring arm reaches boys at CMSD schools: Wade Park. They also joined in the fun at the game; our mentors come from various career backgrounds, including law, psychology, medicine, education, and finance. Many grew up in the same Cleveland neighborhoods where the boys they mentor now live. The highlight of this mentee outing was at halftime; they got to be on the floor and welcome the Cavaliers back out from the locker room, forming a tunnel to slap hands with the players. Great night for all, and yes, the Cavs beat San Antonio Spurs 117 to 109.
