Emmy® Award-winning entertainer, radio personality, motivational speaker, New York Times best-selling author, business mogul, and philanthropist, Steve Harvey returns to Georgia with his 11th annual Boys Mentoring weekend.

This Father’s Day weekend, over 200 teenage boys from fatherless households will join Steve Harvey and friends at The Rock Ranch in The Rock, GA, for a life-changing experience. For the first time, the four-day camp has partnered with Bethany Christian Services and will host youth in foster care and adoption programs. The U.S. National Guard and U.S. Fish and Wildlife have also partnered with the 2019 mentoring camp.
“A young man without a father in his life has a hole in his heart the size of this father,” says Steve Harvey. “Through mentorship, these young men have received the tools and guidance to propel them both professionally and emotionally.”
Activities at the camp include STEM programs, educational forums, career development, financial literacy, motivational sessions, health and wellness clinics, and more.
In addition to the mentorship camp, “The Single Mothers’ Enrichment Summit,” led by former ESSENCE Magazine’s Editor-at-Large, Mikki Taylor, will host single mothers for conversations and educational sessions while providing them with the tools to help support and raise productive young men.
