EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (KABC) -- It was an unforgettable night for a group of standout students from Locke High School in Watts.

There was a five-star celebration for the young Black men who completed this year's "See a Man, Be a Man" mentoring program.

They got to wear their new, custom-made suits to dinner at Flemings Steakhouse in El Segundo.

Many of the young men don't have fathers at home and face challenges with family histories of addiction and incarceration.
