Help Kismet of Kings Find a New Home

In 2013, Kismet of Kings was founded by Lewis Spears in response to the tragic loss of a loved one to gun violence. What began as a small mentorship program in a borrowed classroom has grown into a powerful community dedicated to empowering young men in Jersey City.

Over the past decade, we have provided about 500 young men with mentorship, education, and leadership development, helping them become strong, confident leaders in their communities. However, we have always lacked a space to truly call our own.

Now, we are ready to take the next step and establish a permanent home for Kismet of Kings. A dedicated space will allow us to expand our programs, host more events, and continue to transform the lives of young men in Jersey City.

We need your support to make this vision a reality. By donating to our Givebutter campaign, you are helping us secure a new space and invest in the future of our community. Together, we can build a legacy of hope and empowerment.

Thank you for being a part of our journey.

With gratitude,
Lewis Spears and the Kismet of Kings Team
