100 Black Men of Greater Lafayette is a local chapter of the 100 Black Men of America, which is an organization that mentors youth, particularly those in disadvantaged neighborhoods or areas throughout the whole community. The chapter was founded in 2009 and has been in operation ever since.
“I was one of the founding members,” Alton Trahan, the president of 100 Black Men of Greater Lafayette, said. “We started in 2008, meeting with other leaders within the community, and decided to charter an organization here because we felt there was a need for mentoring, number one, and the work of the 100, which also falls into education, health, wellness, and economic empowerment.
