The 100 Black Men of DeKalb County will host a youth summit focusing on financial literacy this weekend in DeKalb.
The event features ways to develop a financial plan and other practical lessons. It also will honor 13-year-old Stephen Stafford, a junior at Morehouse College pursuing a double major in math and science; 14-year-old Marypat Hector, who organized a support team for Alabama tornado victims last year and recently launched the Shake Off Violence town hall meetings in DeKalb, Fulton and Clayton counties; and 15-year-old Tony Betton, an actor and speaker who was a 2012 Stellar Award nominee.
The program runs from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday at the Porter Sanford Performing Arts Center on Rainbow Drive, near Decatur.
