About Us
The mission of Baltimore BORN is to provide low-income middle school and high school aged boys living in Baltimore, Maryland the opportunities, resources and networks necessary to succeed, flourish and become the men they want and deserve to The founder of the program is Baltimore Raven Domonique Foxworth. Domonique knows that if not for the high expectations of him coupled with opportunities, resources and networks provided by those around him while he was growing up, he would not enjoy the success he does today. Through Baltimore BORN he would like to provide a strong, academically challenging, culturally enriching, and opportunity filled program to boys in their formative years so they too can achieve their dreams. It is our goal that the boys enrolled in BORN stay with us through graduation from high school. To achieve this mission, participants in Baltimore BORN will be expected to:
- Develop critical thinking and writing skills
- Thoughtfully evaluate ideas of manhood in our society
- Encounter new experiences and see these experiences as opportunities for personal and community growth
- Draw on a network of professional and personal support in a journey toward college graduation
- Participate in public service projects that demonstrate an understanding of contemporary problems in Baltimore and beyond
