Thanks to Amherst Holdings, the 100 Black Men of Austin, Inc. sponsored 20 students from Huston-Tillotson University to attend the 3rd Annual AAMRI Collegiate Black Male Retreat. There the students engage in breakout sessions tackling every day issues as black men over a 3 day period. Multiple colleges and universities were in attendance and the retreat was powerful to say the least.
Ally Financial and the 100 Black Men of Austin, Inc. partnered to offer financial literacy budget training to the Collegiate 100 students at Huston-Tillotson University.
The 100 National Office challenges all chapters to initiate special programming during mentoring month. Eric Collier invited Collegiate 100 students to his home to discuss the topic “Why are you here?” The students were challenged to understand their purpose in life.
The Collegiate 100 capitalized on the 100 hosting the prospective member event at the Spurs game by volunteering. The Collegiate handed out replica championship rings to the Spurs fans. They stuck around for the game and had the opportunity to speak with potential 100 members.
