Since diversity is one of our nation's strengths, we wish to build our youth into stronger citizens, who are aware, sensitive to differences and capable of constructive expression of dissimilar opinions. Our objective is to provide a wealth of educational and cultural experiences. We also look to continue to promote and sponsor special educational and entertainment events and festivals held online and in-person.

Our Focus: Giving a Hand-up and not a Hand-out by educating, embracing, celebrating and pay tribute to African American education, culture and history.
