Punitive Measures Holding Students Back

Our Solution

College Access Preparation Program (CAPP)

  • Our College Application Preparation Program provides personalized guidance to help students explore HBCU options, complete college and financial aid applications, and secure scholarships. We support students in every step, from crafting compelling essays to preparing for interviews. Through tailored mentorship, our program equips students with the confidence and resources they need to successfully apply to college and embark on their academic journey.

Community Service/ Civic Engagement

  • ProjectHBCU Civic Engagement

    At ProjectHBCU, we empower students to make a positive impact in their communities through active civic engagement and leadership. Our students participate in community service projects, learn leadership skills, and engage in initiatives that address local needs. By connecting them to the rich legacy of HBCU activism and providing mentorship, we inspire students to become socially responsible leaders. Whether through organizing community events or leading service projects, we help students turn their passion into action, fostering lifelong civic responsibility and change.

Youth Leadership Program

  • The ProjectHBCU Youth Leadership Program is designed to empower the next generation of leaders. We offer students hands-on opportunities to develop leadership skills through workshops, mentorship, and real-world experience in community service. Our program connects students with HBCU alumni and community leaders, offering them valuable insights into leadership roles and civic responsibility. By fostering skills in communication, teamwork, and problem-solving, we prepare students to become effective leaders in their schools, communities, and beyond.

Community Building

We provide a safe and nurturing environment where students can grow, connect, and thrive.

Tailored Education Support

For students interested in higher education, we offer personalized assistance with college admissions, financial aid, and guidance in selecting Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

Alternative Career Pathways

Recognizing that college may not be the preferred path for everyone, we offer programs focused on trade skills, entrepreneurship, and workforce readiness to help students succeed in various professional arenas.

Our programs are designed to equip students with the skills and knowledge to excel not only in their local communities but also on domestic and international stages.

Local to Global Impact

Why Our Model Works

Individualized Mentorship

Research indicates that comprehensive support programs, which include personalized advising and financial assistance, can significantly improve college graduation rates for traditionally underserved students.

HBCU Success

Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) play a crucial role in producing Black STEM professionals. Despite representing only 3% of U.S. colleges and universities, HBCUs produce nearly 25% of Black graduates with STEM degrees.

Community-Driven Models

Our approach aligns with evidence-based strategies that integrate academic support with personal development, leading to improved student outcomes and societal integration.
