Move-In Day Mafia

ers from all walks of life. We have banded together with our time AND talents to primarily support an underserved demographic within the HBCU (Historically Black Colleges & Universities) community– the students who have aged out of foster care. We deliver dorm room makeover experiences, hope, and resources primarily to freshmen who make this life-changing transition without familial, financial, and emotional support. Plus, we have scholars who have experienced homelessness or who need more financial support completing their education. WHY WE DO IT

70% of kids in foster care dream of going to college. But circumstances knock that dream down and just 3% of these dreamers go on to earn their degree. Therefore, those who enroll in college are already beating the odds. However, HBCUs often don’t have the resources to adequately address the needs of these trailblazers. Our mission is to disrupt the "Foster care to Prison" pipeline and replace it with the "Foster care to HBCU GRADUATE pipeline.”

HOW CAN YOU HELP? Join The Mafia and share your time, talent, or treasure. We need volunteers, mentors, donors, and sponsors as we expand to HBCUs across the country.
