How I got my scar.
Build with us. Heal with us.
Sanctuary: Bronx is a healing and educational space rooted in memory, spirit, and community power—led by and for young men of color. This program weaves together real estate, philosophy, capoeira, and art to nurture the next generation of builders and thinkers. Through a 24-week program and public workshops, Sanctuary offers more than skills—it offers belonging, vision, and a place to become whole.

This is where memory, imagination, and hands meet to build something sacred. Follow the progress as we turn intention into structure, and structure into sanctuary.
