Poverty has long lasting effects on the physical, mental, social, and educational development of Black youth. Between the effects of nutritional deficiency, the lack of adequate housing and the social and educational obstacles that systemically deter achievement, it can be difficult to be fully prepared for higher education.

The Bachelor-Benedict Community Foundation seeks to combat those challenging issues by giving minority youth a fighting chance in a world that often leaves them far behind.

Greetings and welcome to the Bachelor-Benedict Community Foundation (BBCF) website.

The BBCF was established in 2018 as a 501(c)(3) not for profit charitable corporation that has as its purpose to provide scholarships to qualified students and to invest in youth programs with proven outcomes.
