Our collective goal is to actively contribute to endeavors that enhance the welfare of our community. Whether through educational, charitable, wellness, political, or any other efforts that positively impact families and communities, we aspire to make a meaningful difference.
History
“The Brotherhood716”
In March 2021, amidst the challenges of COVID-19, I launched Zoom gatherings to reconnect with friends in Buffalo, NY. Soon, my co-founder Dennis Wilson and I recognized the potential to extend these meetings beyond mere socializing. Thus began a series of events featuring speakers from diverse backgrounds—doctors, financial experts, artists, athletes, and more. Out of these gatherings emerged "The Brotherhood716," a testament to the enduring friendships that have spanned over five decades. Despite our divergent paths and locations, we've remained steadfast in our bonds. Our vision extends beyond friendship; we aspire to contribute meaningfully to causes that foster stronger communities, neighborhoods, families, individuals and education. From a small group, we've burgeoned into a community of approximately 300 members, with plans to formalize as a non-profit organization currently in motion.
