Montgomery, AL — Community leader and mentor Deontanee Jack is reshaping the future for young men in Montgomery through his youth organization, The Gentlemen’s Club. In a recent interview, Jack discussed how the program, designed for boys and young men ages 6–20, is helping cultivate discipline, respect, and purpose through mentorship, leadership training, and community service.
Founded on the belief that “every young man deserves a chance to lead with confidence and integrity,” The Gentlemen’s Club offers a structured environment where participants can learn life skills, explore career paths, and find positive male role models. Since its launch, the organization has grown steadily, hosting weekly mentoring sessions, service projects, and workshops that focus on education, mental wellness, and personal responsibility.
Jack explained that his motivation stemmed from his own upbringing and a desire to fill a gap he saw in local communities. “A lot of young men just need someone to listen and guide them,” he said. “We don’t just talk about being gentlemen we show what it means to act like one, every day, in school, at home, and in the community.”…
