PRESIDENT AND FOUNDER

Kenneth Moales Jr. is a bridge between spiritual ministry, civic activism, and community redevelopment.

As a Morehouse graduate and former accountant turned pastor, he expanded his father’s legacy while spearheading education, housing, and anti-foreclosure efforts. His resilience has been tested through major league battles and personal crisis-most notably surviving a violent carjacking in 2025, which he responded to with compassion and forgiveness rather than retribution.

A Personal Encounter That Fuels the Mission

Our founder, Kenneth, faced a life-changing moment when he became the victim of an attempted carjacking — an experience that was later featured on Fox News.

In that moment, he saw firsthand the desperation, fear, and lack of guidance that can drive young men toward dangerous choices.

This incident was more than just a headline. It was a wake-up call — a reminder of why our community’s sons need strong mentors, spiritual grounding, and opportunities to thrive.

Today, SONS is not just about preventing violence. It’s about building futures. It’s about showing young men that they can lead, heal, and inspire instead of harm

OUR MISSION

We are committed to the mobilizing African American fathers to step into their essential roles as mentors, educators, and guides for young Black boys ages 13 to 20.

Through the transformative power of faith, hands-on training in skilled trades, and active civic engagement, we empower the next generation to discover their purpose, claim their identity, and lead with integrity. Our mission is rooted in the belief that consistent, culturally grounded mentorship can break cycles of despair and ignite lasting change in our communities.

OUR VISION

We envision a future where every Black boy grows up with the tools, support, and confidence to become a builder of opportunity, a leader of principle, and a healer of broken systems. We see a generation rising-equipped spiritually, economically, and emotionally- to restore families, transform neighborhoods, and redefine what it means to be a Black man in America. This is not just individual success; it’s about collective restoration and legacy-building for generations to come.
