How It All Started
THE BLAQUE EFFECT was founded with the purpose of showing how strong of an impact a strong male role model can be. We offer resources for single fathers and their children, as well as programs for teens and young adults to receive the tools they need to succeed in life with strong male role models as their guides.
WHO: The Blaque Effect was an idea created by Blaques founder, James Anderson. James is a single father of a growing son. He quickly noticed there weren't many resources available to single fathers. He started to partner with different non-profits, as well as other small businesses to provide resources for other fathers and children in need. He quickly realized that many were in need of these services, and Thus THE BLAQUE EFFECT was created.
WHAT: The Blaque Effect does many things to build the youth and community such as:
-
School Field-trips
-
Body Art (Tattoo) Apprenticeships
-
Finance Workshops
-
Business Etiquette and Education
-
Clothing Dontations
-
Fundraisers for other non-profits & small businesses
and so much more!
WHY: We care about ensuring everyone in the community has access to the same knowledge, tools, and resources to better themselves as well as their family. THE BLAQUE EFFECT was created to help fathers and children in need. Everyone should have a chance at a better quality of life.
