HBCU College Tours

InteRoots has been honored to serve as a fiscal sponsor for two Young Mobilizers HBCU College Tours, and looks forward to sponsoring a third in 20243. This sponsorship, which we call a “Roots Project,” allows for organizations to fund short-term initiatives, which serve the dual purpose of meeting a need identified by the community and building capacity to support a larger vision of progress.


“To end the Cradle to Prison Pipeline, we strive to create direct paths for students to the nation’s premier universities (with an emphasis on HBCUs), career opportunities, academic resources, and scholarships. One step in this effort is conducting immersive college tours. This program has the dual goal of connecting students to the next step of their academic careers while concurrently bringing awareness to the disparities in funding between HBCUs and PWIs (Primarily White Institutions).”


Young Mobilizers is in the process of expanding its structure, reach, and vision. We look forward to keeping you up-to-date as the effort moves forward!
