In fall 2020, The Male Empowerment Network (M.E.N.) will be celebrating 10 years of service to Kent State University. This past spring, M.E.N. was featured on the Steve Harvey Show as a part of the university collaboration to provide scholarships and support to eight young men who have just started their first year as Golden Flashes!

The Steve and Marjorie Harvey Foundation has generously pledged $10,000. Funds are used to support programming and scholarships for male-identifying students of color to support their academic, professional, personal and social development.
