Meet The Brothers
Jacoby
Jacoby Trimble is the founder and president of The Brotherhood Empowerment Group, born and raised in Dallas, Texas. He has served in Dallas law enforcement for over 13 years, bringing both leadership and compassion to his role. Jacoby married his wife, Aunna, in 2021, and while they have no children of their own, they both share a deep love for kids. A lifelong fan of basketball and football, his favorite teams include the Dallas Cowboys and whichever team LeBron James plays for.
The idea for The Brotherhood was placed on Jacoby’s heart by God and sparked from a simple social media post — one that led four close friends to join him in launching the organization. His mission is to be a big brother and positive role model to every young man they encounter. Through mentorship, communication, and consistency, Jacoby and The Brotherhood aim to instill leadership, accountability, and faith in the next generation.
Lamont
Lamont Floyd (no relation to Floyd Mayweather or Sleepy Floyd — for all the old timers) is a proud husband, father of two, and dedicated member of The Brotherhood Empowerment Group. Originally from North Carolina, he now calls Texas home and brings a deep sense of purpose to the group’s mission. He’s been married for 4 years and is a father to two beautiful children.
Lamont joined The Brotherhood to help lead, steward, and inspire the next generation of young men. Having grown up in a single-parent household, he understands firsthand the value of strong, positive male influences in a young man’s life. His passion for mentorship is rooted in a desire to help boys rise above their circumstances and realize their potential. Lamont is committed to doing the work needed to uplift the community and believes there’s no better group of men to do it with. Together, he and his brothers aim to build a legacy of leadership, faith, and resilience.

He’s been married to his wife, Monique, for over 9 years and is a proud father to two sons, Landen and Airion.
Michael's passion for mentoring youth began during his college years through the YMCA’s Big Brother program. His lifelong friendship with founder Jacoby Trimble led him to join The Brotherhood’s mission to guide and uplift young men.
