Join HBCU Connect's Mission to Cultivate Diverse Leaders - Become an HBCU Connect Partner!

Join HBCU Connect
Posted By: S. Moore on November 15, 2023


At HBCU Connect, we believe in shaping tomorrow's leaders, and we remain committed to supporting HBCUs, their students, and the unique African-American culture that Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) represent. Our company fully believes in promoting diversity of leadership and cultivating the leaders of tomorrow.

This year, we proudly partnered with GE Appliances to offer two transformative scholarships, awarding $1,000 each to outstanding students in engineering and business. These scholarships were created to help with tuition, room and board, or books, enabling these brilliant students to pursue their academic aspirations without limitations on finances.

In collaboration with Roth Staffing, we also initiated a dynamic scholarship program this year, granting two $2,500 scholarships. These awards acknowledge students and individuals affiliated with HBCU Connect who showed commitment to community service, diversity, equity, and inclusion. We celebrate those who work persistently to make a difference in the lives of others.

But we also believe that commitment to student success should go beyond scholarships. That's why you can find dedicated scholarships, internships, events, and career sections on the HBCU Connect website, where students can access valuable opportunities. We are committed to cultivating talent and supporting diversity in education, from exclusive internships to scholarships that honor distinction.

HBCU Connect is looking for forward-thinking businesses to join our mission.

Join us in our efforts to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion programs. Let's work together to create a world where opportunity knows no limitations. Email: sales@hbcuconnect.com or go to https://hbcuconnect.com/cgi-bin/jobs/rates...
