How We Started

Our organization started way back in 2017 when Anthony mentored young males in local areas. He gives these children the programs focusing on school system, guidance, and role models to show support. Since then, MALES of Distinction conducts mentoring programs for ages 8-18 years old. Our curriculum focuses on teaching them valuable life skills such as decision-making and handling finances.

Anthony strongly believes in order for him to keep what he has, he must freely give it away. Anthony started working with juveniles for the past several years in a mentoring capacity. In 2017, he realized that there was a need for additional support for families and communities that focuses on building self-esteem, improving the well-being of students within the school systems who need guidance, support and role models. As Mr. McCauley began to research juvenile justice and those males who find themselves making bad choices, he saw that he can use his success building and character development talents to bring together males to help those affected by making poor life decisions. After brainstorming and writing out thoughts and ideas, Mr. McCauley began to create MALES of Distinction.

“I love to see the talent and abilities within others that they don’t see in themselves, and help them bring out the best of who they are.”
