Emerging 100: Class of 2026

Emerging 100 Houston is empowering the next generation through mentorship, leadership development, and community impact.


As a premier young professionals organization, we are committed to enriching the lives of Houston youth through meaningful mentorship and community-based initiatives. Comprised of accomplished Black men ages 22–35, we proudly serve as role models and live by our motto: “What they see is what they’ll be.”


Mentorship is at the heart of our mission. We work to support the social, cultural, and emotional development of young people—particularly Black and Brown boys—by providing guidance, exposure, and opportunities that help them thrive.


Your donation helps us continue and expand the impact of our flagship programs, including Emerge Academy, Trailblazers, and Cracking the Code.


When you support Emerging 100 Houston, you are investing in a brighter future for our community—one rooted in growth, education, health, leadership, and financial empowerment.


Donate today and join us in shaping a better tomorrow for Houston’s youth.
