The "X" for Boys



Solid looking setup.

Teaches male-related skills like tools, basic home repair, basic automotive repair, firearm safety, and other skills not being taught to many urban boys anymore due to lack of fathers in the home.

Also have a summer camp and a book club.

Take kids of any race, but seems to end up with mostly black kids.

I read for about 30 seconds before donating.

Check it out.

Really great to have organizations that can fill in and teach some practical life skills and lessons. They have a similar organization in New Orleans called "Son of a Saint"

That’s great. Those kids need some fatherly guidance. I’d like to donate to the cause.

All the community organizers or whatever the race baiters call themselves would be doing this like this if they really wanted to make a difference in their communities.

I used to teach in the ghetto, and those were some of my favorite students. A lot of them are wonderful kids who were just so desperate for someone to love them, care about them, and to just show them that they matter.

This is needed more than anyone realizes.

This is the type of stuff that should headline Black Lives Matter demands

I'd love to volunteer for an organization like this except I don't have many skills to impart.

Congrats on being a selfish piece of shite.

There ARE good people in this world, regardless of the race.

Now this is what I’m talking about. Hopefully they teach them outdoor skills as well.
