Economic empowerment is necessary to create a just society — without it, there is no self-sufficiency.
The 100 Black Men of Greater Little Rock believes that economic empowerment is the cornerstone of community strength. Through our programs, we equip individuals with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to build lasting financial security and generational wealth.
Our financial literacy initiatives cover the essential building blocks of economic independence:
"We must rapidly begin the shift from a 'thing-oriented' society to a 'person-oriented' society. When machines and computers, profit motives and property rights are considered more important than people, the giant triplets of racism, materialism, and militarism are incapable of being conquered."
— Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., 1967
