Who We Are
A Few Good Men, Inc., a 501(c) (3) organization was founded in 1993 by a few committed men in Monroe, North Carolina.

We plan to stay Consistent and Persistent with the community activities that are listed below because they are our top priorities annually.
"Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or the darkness of destructive selfishness. This is the judgment. Life's most persistent and urgent question is, WHAT ARE YOU DOING FOR OTHERS?"
