Why Your Support Matters

Your generosity fuels our initiatives - from educational scholarships to cultural events, from supporting local black-owned businesses to preserving historical landmarks. Every dollar you donate sparks change and builds a legacy.

Our initiatives address the pressing need to develop future leaders in our community and overcome academic disparities among Black and biracial children in Bartholomew County. The positive results we’ve witnessed have strengthened our resolve to do even more.

A decade of dedication, progress, and community impact has brought us to a pivotal moment. With your unwavering support, we’ve achieved remarkable results in education, arts, culture, leadership development, and more – yet our work is far from over. We’re taking our next step with ambitious plans to grow our funding raised from over $400,000 to $1,000,000 so that we may continue to champion our initiatives over the next decade.

Welcoming support from all in Bartholomew County, we ask that you consider a pledge to support our vision. We wish to engage the wisdom and support of all ages, professions, and perspectives. As we transfer knowledge and life learning, we develop a deeper understanding and appreciation of each other and make a lasting impact individually and as a community.

Join us in this bold mission, and let’s continue to build a legacy of empowerment, progress, and unity in Bartholomew County. Together, we can achieve our goals and ensure that every member of our community realizes their limitless potential.

Thank you for your consideration, support, and belief in our mission.
