About Our Organization

Leaders Become Legends is a non-profit organization with 3 Co-Directors Bretto, Derric, James all are Fathers, Businessmen, Frontline Community Leaders, Activist with lived life experiences relatable with the demographic we serve. While working with and mentoring young So Called Blacks, So Called Hispanics, and So Called Native American frontline community members for over ten years helping them to get re-engaged with learning, gain employment, and connect to other resources we’ve found that 85% of the the young adults that we worked with were not prepared for the opportunities that came their way. Due to family situations, lack of know how, living situations, substance abuse, lack of education and other barriers. We created Leaders Become Legends to fill in the gaps through mentoring young adults to prepare them for opportunities. Leaders Become Legends will provide necessary resources to adequately address mental and physical health needs, financial and social needs, ownership, and economics to foster independent individuals who are engaged citizens contributing to the improvement of their communities.
