Mu Rho Donates $1,000 to Anne Arundel Community College<br />
Arnold, MD. December 5, 2015. <strong>The</strong> Brothers of<br />
Mu Rho Chapter donated $1,000 to Anne Arundel<br />
Community College’s Black Male Initiative, which<br />
provides mentorship and support to minority male<br />
students to help them achieve academic and social<br />
success. Students that participate in this group have<br />
the opportunity to participate in monthly roundtable<br />
discussions, participate at the annual BMI summit,<br />
understand how life skills will assist them in obtaining<br />
a degree and being better prepared for life after<br />
college. Mu Rho Chapter Brothers mentor these students<br />
and prepare them for success. Brother James<br />
Payton stated, “It is a great feeling being able to help<br />
the younger generation move forward and assist<br />
them in transforming their lives.” <strong>The</strong> Black Male<br />
Initiative has been at the campus of Anne Arundel<br />
Community College for the past 6 years and as a<br />
result, it has seen the number of particpants increase<br />
each year.<br />
