PARTNERS IN PROVIDING WORTHY YOUNG MEN A LIFE-CHANGING OPPORTUNITY.

"MOKAN was the support system I needed. They exposed me to what it takes to be successful and held me accountable so that I would qualify for an NCAA scholarship. I'm just excited for what I'll be able to do for my family because of it."
