On Saturday, June 27th , the CCM hosted our third Annual John E. Everett Awards Dinner at the Hyatt Regency Chicago, Regency Ballroom, 151 E. Wacker Drive. Our dinner speaker was Quintin E. Primo III, Chairman and CEO of Capri Capital Partners LLC and the founder of the largest African-American owned real estate investment firm.

Our theme for the Awards Dinner was "Working Hard, Working Smart: The FUTURE is NOW!" At the dinner, we honored several of the young men in our program who have distinguished themselves during this past school year. In addition, we shone the light on a number of volunteers who have made significant contributions to our community.

Your support for our Annual Awards Dinner means a lot to the on-going success of the Concerned Christian Men (CCM) and our efforts to mold the next generation of responsible and capable African American leaders. Your support will enable continued progress in establishing innovative programs like our Martial Arts Initiative, the Career Explorations Program as well as our upcoming 3rd Annual CCM Thompkins-Stimley Summer Camp, to be held in August in Allegan, Michigan.

We firmly believe that we are doing the Lord's work and we ARE making a difference in the lives of our boys.
