Brittany and Devin’s Angels Mentor Program is proud to host Hometown Hero Events honoring outstanding leaders in the Lubbock community in celebration of Black History Month. These events are designed to recognize individuals whose leadership, service, and dedication have created positive change and opened doors for others.

Hometown Heroes are educators, mentors, community advocates, and local leaders who often work behind the scenes to uplift youth and strengthen families. Through this initiative, we shine a light on their impact while creating meaningful moments of inspiration for the next generation. Youth in our mentor program have the opportunity to learn firsthand what leadership, perseverance, and service look like in action.

The events bring together students, families, mentors, and community members for an experience rooted in appreciation, storytelling, and empowerment. Honorees share their journeys, challenges, and successes, helping young people see what is possible when commitment and community come together. These moments are especially powerful during Black History Month, as they connect history, culture, and lived experience to the present and future.

By celebrating local heroes, Brittany and Devin’s Angels fosters pride, strengthens community bonds, and reinforces the importance of positive role models. The Hometown Hero Events also serve as a reminder that impactful leadership exists right here at home—and that our youth can become the next generation of changemakers.

Your support helps make these events possible by covering program costs, event materials, and resources that allow us to honor our leaders with dignity and create memorable experiences for youth and families. Together, we can celebrate excellence, preserve legacy, and inspire hope throughout the Lubbock community.
