Community Day kicks off the first day of an impactful weekend.

It is an opportunity for community supporters and gentlemen to engage with critical topics impacting male educators of color. The morning will consist of a panel discussion and solution-focused breakout sessions. The afternoon will be service-oriented, where we will strategize with our educators about a challenge they are facing in the profession.   

Come build with us!  If you have any questions about Community Day, please reach out to leah@profoundgentlemen.org 

Community Day will be held at the Embassy Suites in Charlotte, NC at 4800 S Tryon St, Charlotte, NC 28217 on Friday, March 17.

 

This event sign up page is for community supporters - if you are a male educator of color, please sign up at our registration page. 

Thank you to our donors!

"Overall, I loved being able to have the chance to build a community with like minded black men and dedicate my time to a space that was wholly dedicated to developing me as a person and a professional."

Darryl Gladstone

"I was appreciative that this platform allowed the gentleman to have a consistent dialogue all the throughout the CIA conference. I like how were were encouraged to share our experiences relevant to the subject matter for the conference."

Johnnie Jackson

"Great topics I really enjoyed talking about things that I never really hear as a topic of discussion but yet it related to me so much! I also enjoyed not just focusing on the neg but the positives of 2020 and celebrating each others accomplishments!"
