Join Us for the Developing Noblemen Academy Annual 5k: Empowering Our Boys Through Mentorship!

Dear Memphians and Supporters,

Are you ready to make a lasting impact on the lives of young boys from our minority communities? The Developing Noblemen Academy (DNA) is calling on you to rally together and support a life-changing mission that is shaping the future of our youth. With the annual 5k event just around the corner, it's time to join hands, step up, and address a pressing issue: the lack of mentors for our boys.

Why Mentorship Matters:

In a world that is constantly changing, young boys need guidance, role models, and champions now more than ever. The DNA 5k is more than just a walk or run – it's a powerful statement of unity, commitment, and dedication to uplifting our community's next generation. Our boys are facing challenges that demand our collective attention: from the allure of crime and violence to the scarcity of positive role models.

The DNA Mission:

At DNA, we're on a mission to build men of upright character, firm principles, and financial stability. We know that mentorship is a vital ingredient in achieving this vision. Our program provides teaching, mentoring, and unwavering support to boys from minority communities, empowering them to navigate life's challenges, make informed decisions, and become responsible citizens.


5k for Change:
The DNA 5k isn't just about the run – it's about stepping forward as a community to advocate for change. By participating, supporting, or volunteering, you're sending a powerful message that Memphis cares about its boys' futures. We are taking back our communities from the grip of senseless violence, steering our boys away from destructive paths, and fostering a new generation of gentlemen who contribute positively to society.

All Hands on Deck:
We invite each and every one of you to be a part of this transformative movement. Whether you're a seasoned mentor, a concerned citizen, a parent, or someone who believes in the power of education and mentorship, your involvement matters. Our boys need more role models – male and female – to guide them towards a path of success, resilience, and integrity.

Let's lace up our running shoes, walk alongside our boys, and inspire them to become the best versions of themselves. Your support for DNA's 5k is an investment in a brighter future for Memphis, one where our boys thrive, succeed, and lead with honor.

Join us in advocating for the transformative power of mentorship. Register, donate, or volunteer today – because every step you take, every dollar you contribute, and every moment you dedicate helps mold the future of our community.

To learn more and get involved, visit www.dna-memphis.org. Let's embark on this journey of change together and show our boys that they have a community that believes in them.

Together, let's rewrite the story and shape a brighter tomorrow for our boys.
