The Walnut Foundation
Part proceeds of this event will go towards a contribution to The Walnut Foundation – a Men’s Health Interest and Prostate Support Group working with the Black Community in identifying the needs of Black Men. They support in areas of health and health-related issues to provide a forum for discussion in a comfortable, safe and supportive environment.
A Note From Andre:
My reason for choosing the Walnut Foundation was after learning that my grandfather had passed away from prostate cancer and a lack of support within the black community. It was only fitting, therefore, that I would dedicate my time and resources to an organization that is providing the black community with the help it needs to better inform and educate the community. My appointment to the Board of Directors as Director of Youth Engagement has given me so much appreciation for the work the Foundation does. To work behind the scenes in planning the direction of the foundation is extremely rewarding.
