Boys 2 Bowties
Mission Statement
Boys 2 Bowties empowers young men to lead with Respect & Accountability while providing mentorship, workforce development, life skills, and meaningful exposure that create pathways to economic mobility, personal growth, and a successful future.
Respect & Accountability
Building Young Men. Creating Pathways. Changing Futures.
“We don’t just tell young men they can become more. We expose them to what MORE looks like.”
WHAT IS BOYS 2 BOWTIES?
Boys 2 Bowties (B2B) is a mentoring and young men’s development initiative of the Paige Group Foundation designed to provide young men with the guidance, exposure, relationships, and real-world tools they need to become confident, responsible, career-ready men.
Built on our core values of Respect & Accountability, Boys 2 Bowties creates a brotherhood where young men can have honest conversations, connect with positive male role models, explore their future, develop essential life skills, and experience opportunities beyond their everyday environment.
FROM BOYS TO MEN — WITH PURPOSE.
Too many young men are expected to figure out adulthood without consistent guidance, meaningful exposure, or access to people who can help them navigate the journey.
Boys 2 Bowties helps fill that gap.
Through mentorship, workforce development, career exploration, leadership development, community engagement, and transformational experiences, we help young men recognize their value, identify their strengths, expand their vision, and develop a plan for what comes next.
Our goal isn't simply to keep young men out of trouble.
Our goal is to put them on a pathway toward something greater.
WHAT WE PROVIDE
Mentorship & Brotherhood — Consistent access to positive men who listen, challenge, encourage, and show up.
Respect & Accountability — Helping young men understand that their decisions, actions, habits, and character matter.
Career & Workforce Development — Introducing career pathways, skilled trades, entrepreneurship, professional development, and employment readiness.
Life Skills & Leadership — Building communication, confidence, decision-making, conflict management, professionalism, and personal responsibility.
Financial Empowerment — Introducing young men to financial literacy, economic mobility, earning potential, and building a stronger financial future.
Career & Cultural Exposure — Providing access to businesses, colleges, careers, professionals, community leaders, cultural experiences, and environments they may not otherwise encounter.
Community & Service — Teaching young men that leadership also means giving back, serving others, and becoming an asset to their families and communities.

Respect. Accountability. Exposure. Opportunity.
Every Young Man Deserves Someone in His Corner.
At Boys 2 Bowties, we believe potential grows when it is met with opportunity, exposure, guidance, and someone who refuses to give up. We are building more than a mentoring program, we are building a brotherhood of young men who understand their value, take accountability for their future, and have the tools and relationships to create a life they can be proud of.
The bowtie is more than what we wear. It represents who we are becoming.
From boys with potential to young men with purpose.
Respect. Accountability. Brotherhood. Opportunity.
