Make a difference in the life of a struggling male youth. Be a fiend, a bigger brother . Making a male presence in the life of a boy struggling with the challenges of growing up in a fatherless home. Just one hour a week of your time makes a big difference. Helping boys succeed and discourage risky behavior is the organization's overall goal. Help a boy or young man improve his self image , his school grades and interpersonal relationships. Challenged by puberty, peer pressure, poverty and single mother stress .The mentor is asked to see and interact with his mentee one hour a week face to face at the mentor's own time. The mentor will develop a one-on-one trusting relationship and demonstrates a caring and understanding attitude that encourages a bond between the mentor and the mentee to bring hope and a new look on life.

Description
Tranquil Manor Foundatuion means a home where family members function in a peaceful, supported environment free of fear, insecurity and anxiety. These are the three demons that push the button for irrational, disruptive behaviors and often times insanity.
Tranquil Manor Foundation, Inc. is a nonprofit 501 (C) 3 organization founded to help vulnerable struggling boys and young men overcome their emotional, social, academic and parenting challenges to pave the way for a successful journey to manhood.
We fulfill our purpose through a youth mentoring program "Mentoring with a Father's Heart" for boys and young men from women only homes struggling to raise their sons or grand sons without the involvement of a father or male role model in their lives.This program is powered by thoroughly screened adult males living in Broward County and adjacent County cities who through their actions and guidance keep their mentees on a path that prevents them from aspiring to become inmates of Jails and/or Mental institutions but rather becoming productive, independent citizens of the United States of America or wherever they chose to live.
Tranquil Manor Foundation accepts support for its mentoring program in various ways:
Donations: monetary or in-kind, . Sponsorships for events related to the mentoring program. Socialization , educational and recreational activities for the boys, as well as. general program. expenses and program space.
