In addition, Sigma Beta Xi leads the Alliance for Boys and Men of Color of

          Riverside County, allowing us to bring together public and private organizations

          to break down barriers for boys and men of color in order to dismantle the school

          to prison pipeline. Sigma Beta Xi administers the Rites of Passage program in

          Western Riverside County, which is a mental health prevention program that

          uses pan African history and culture to strengthen the resiliency of African

          American males. In 2016, we coordinated the Cal EITC 4 Me program in East



          Income Tax Credit to low income families. For the last 9 years we have

          administered the Rockabilly Extravaganza Car Show. With the help of our

          partners we have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for cancer research

          and our youth mentoring programs. Currently, the Rockabilly Extravaganza Car

          Show is one of the premier car shows in Southern California, attracting

          thousands of car enthusiast and families.
