Men of Clay (MOC) is a transformative mentoring program under the Heart 2 Heart initiative of The Dennis Price Jr. Foundation. Inspired by the life and legacy of Dennis “DJ” Price Jr. and the guiding influence of his father, Dennis Price Sr., this program exists to shape the next generation of young men with love, discipline, and purpose. 

 

Our Belief: 
 

We are all molded—by the people who raise us, the neighborhoods we grow up in, and the values we’re taught (or not taught). Men of Clay was created to be a steady hand in that shaping process, especially for at-risk youth who face overwhelming obstacles and too few positive influences. 

 

What We Do: 
 

Men of Clay mentors walk alongside boys and young men to: 

• Teach respect, accountability, and ambition 

• Open minds through experiential learning, activities, and trips 

• Help them see life beyond their zip code 

• Build character, confidence, and community connection 

 

Through consistent mentoring and real-world exposure, we help young men recognize that the path to destruction is a choice—and so is the path to greatness. We believe in giving them the tools, support, and encouragement to choose wisely. 

 

Our Goal: 
 

To alter life trajectories and give every young man the same care, guidance, and hope that DJ received. In doing so, we honor DJ’s life by lifting others to reach their full potential.
