CBM Pledge
We are Concerned Black Men. Our motto is "Caring for Our Youth." We are Black men of integrity who endeavor to exemplify the following characteristics:
- cultural awareness;
- economic independence;
- emotional, intellectual, physical, and spiritual strength.
We pledge to develop and instill these qualities in our youth.
We pledge to continue the struggle of our ancestors and be positive role models dedicated to community service.
We pledge to love, teach, respect, and help our youth, and to leave a legacy that establishes a foundation which encourages young people to realize their true potential as future leaders.
We pledge that we will promote and honor institutions dedicated to preserving our families and communities.
We pledge to nurture and develop our most precious resource - our youth.
We are, Concerned Black Men!

Before our general body meetings come to order all the volunteers recite this pledge.
It has been done this way for two decades.
