100 Black Men of Las Vegas

Founded in 1999 by prominent Las Vegas leaders including Larry Mosley, Randall Bacon, and Ted Watkins, 100 Black Men of Las Vegas represents a commitment to improving quality of life and expanding educational opportunities for African Americans throughout Southern Nevada. Built on the principle that brotherhood forms the organization's foundation, the chapter has grown to over 100 dedicated members who believe in long-term community engagement and systemic change. While rooted in serving the African American community, membership remains open to all who share the organization's vision and meet membership criteria. The organization operates from a social justice framework, advocating for equal economic, political, and social rights while addressing systemic barriers that affect youth and families in Las Vegas. Through initiatives like scholarship collaborations with Nevada colleges and trade schools, community meetings on educational issues, and advocacy on matters significantly impacting the community, 100 Black Men of Las Vegas works to bridge opportunity gaps and create environments where children and families are inspired to dream and empowered to achieve. Their motto—"Real Men Giving Real Time"—reflects a deep commitment to providing expanded educational experiences, mentorship relationships, and pathways to economic opportunity that transform lives across the Las Vegas region.
