Together,
We Shape What’s Next
In response to the recent election results, we are rallying our community to reaffirm our values and set a vision for the future. The HBCU Futures Pledge is a call to action, rooted in shared purpose, resilience, and commitment to a future where HBCU alumni, students, and allies actively shape our path forward.
Over the next year, HBCUvc will establish an evergreen impact fund to create sustainable wealth-building pathways for HBCU students, alumni, and institutions. This fund will invest in lasting opportunities for Black communities and other mission-aligned groups, extending beyond financial returns to create meaningful change. As a fund created by and for the community, it invites everyone to contribute—whether as builders, changemakers, connectors, or storytellers.
By signing the HBCU Futures Pledge, you’re standing with a powerful coalition dedicated to progress, resilience, and self-determination. Each signature is a public show of solidarity, demonstrating the vast strength and unity of our community. This visible support amplifies our momentum, inspiring allies and potential funders to join us on this journey. Together, we’ll turn our shared vision into action over the next four years.
A Letter to the Public
We, the undersigned, represent the strength, resilience, and vision of the HBCU community. Today, we come together in solidarity, committed to investing in a future that reflects our values and aspirations.
The HBCU Futures Pledge is more than just a signature—it’s a statement of intent. We pledge to support a vision where everyone has an opportunity to flourish and commit ourselves to shaping a future defined by equity, opportunity, and the empowerment of Black communities.
As we move forward, we recognize that lasting change requires both courage and collaboration. This pledge is our commitment to take these steps together, whether by sharing our stories, making connections, or investing time and resources. Our combined voices and efforts will drive this vision forward over the next four years, making an indelible impact on generations to come.
Together, we’re unstoppable.
