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.
Whether it’s giving $5 or $5000, 5 minutes or 5 weeks, know that you are helping make a difference in the lives of at-risk minority youth in our Washington Metropolitan Area with your charitable gestures. Our goal is to fund college scholarships and post graduation shadowing opportunities for the Class of 2024.
