Words matter. So do access + opportunity. Mentors matter.
You matter.
We were always taught that art creates problems and design solves them. That’s why Young Money Finances, Better Wiser Stronger and the Delta Project have come together: to give at-potential young men like you the tools you need to succeed.
Too often, programs start from a deficit – they talk about “at-risk” youth and build from there. We do just the opposite – we recognize your strengths, your skills and your determination and start from there. We are focused on “at-potential” young men just like you.
We Matter Now wants to connect you with the tools, skills, resources and relationships you need to succeed. To do that, you need to have adults who believe in you, support you and help you reach your potential. You also need to have a safe space – to explore, to dream, to grow.
We are Dondreá, Henry, Cole, the co-founders of We Matter Now. By sharing our lived experiences, we can show examples of what boys and young men of color can become.
We Matter Now. Because YOU matter – now!
