Brown Boys Read Inspiring the love of reading through the love of running to help black and brown boys improve reading proficiency, outrun childhood obesity and live fuller, healthier lives. Our Brown Boys Read initiative, in partnership with Preston Taylor Ministries, provides an 8 week after school program help inspire the love of reading for 2nd thru 5th grade boys who need to improve their reading proficiency. 25 boys participated in the program involving 4 weeks of dedicated reading on Tuesdays from 4 to 545 PM followed by 4 weeks of running or walking with the local chapter of Black Men Run Nashville to help combat childhood obesity and inspire the boys to develop a healthy lifestyle. Each boy received 4 new books to start their library collection at home, a black men run tshirt and new Saucony running shoes. We hosted a very fun and entertaining completion ceremony with food, games and certificates of completion. The boys competed in the Steps of Success 5k run or walked 3.1 miles.
