MBK Ohio

A statewide coalition of communities dedicated to improving outcomes for boys & young men of color and creating opportunities for all of Ohio's youth.

Another incredible morning with @MBK_Ohio and the @Reds, who are creating opportunities for kids around Ohio to learn about pathways to new careers and skills.

Thank you to these partners, as well as Commissioner Reece, for investing in our children at such a pivotal age.

I recently spoke with our inaugural @MBK_Alliance Ambassadors – a group of talented, inspiring young leaders from across the country who are working to give back to their communities. I’m looking forward to following their progress and having them back as alumni to share what they’ve learned. Take a look:

Earlier this week, more than 250 MBK students & leaders from across the state joined us for our 4th Annual MBK Ohio Leadership Day with the Cincinnati @Reds! Thanks to the Reds for hosting and to our community partners for joining us!! @MBK_Alliance

[Sherrod Brown @SenSherrodBrown]

Great to meet with @MBK_Ohio & the @Reds yesterday.

Their partnership is so important — it’s about showing more Black & brown kids in our state that there’s a whole network of people who want to help them achieve their dreams. I’m honored to be a part of it.

[Sherrod Brown @SenSherrodBrown]

This is what the future looks like. @MBK_Ohio is doing important work all over our state to foster the next generation of Ohio leaders.

I can’t wait to see what these kids — and all the young Ohioans I've met at MBK events across our state — accomplish.

[Sherrod Brown @SenSherrodBrown]

Great day with the @Reds and @MBK_Ohio. The young men I met today are going to go far. That’s what My Brother’s Keeper is all about — helping them achieve their dreams.

[Fisher College of Business @FisherOSU]

See how a partnership with the city of Columbus Department of Neighborhoods and @MBK_Ohio brought high school students to @OhioState to explore business, the business of sports and college life. https://t.co/ctwMR2J1FO

We were honored to host @AmeriCorps CEO @msmithDC at the @KirwanInstitute for a roundtable discussion with AmeriCorps members serving at community organizations throughout the state, including @MBK_Ohio, @Rural_Action, & @ServeOhio!

[Sherrod Brown @SenSherrodBrown]

We’re retiring the term “rust belt” in Ohio. These kids are our future.

We’re working with @MAGNETOhio, Students of Promise, @ULCleveland, and @MBK_Ohio to expand opportunities for young Ohioans.

[The Obama Foundation @ObamaFoundation]

From breakout sessions to an engaging panel discussion that included @BarackObama, today offered a representation of the ways school leaders, nonprofits, government officials, and everyday citizens can work together towards a common goal.
