Building a Stronger Community, One Life at a Time

100 Black Men of Silicon Valley is dedicated to improving the quality of life within our communities and enhancing educational and economic opportunities for our youth and other diverse groups. Founded in 1993, we recognized that despite Silicon Valley's prosperity, significant educational and economic gaps affected Black youth in our region. We've been closing those gaps ever since — through mentoring, education, economic empowerment, and health initiatives.
