“The president, board and members of the One Hundred Black Men hold themselves accountable for changing the narrative and outcomes for underserved people in our City. The Citywide Hunger Relief Program, coordinated by our Health & Wellness Committee, is one of the most meaningful initiatives that the One Hundred is involved in.”
