Scholarship Description

The Black Future Foundation was established in 2020 and focuses on providing scholarships to Black college bound students. This organization was created to support, empower and educate our leaders of tomorrow by providing financial support and a network of mentorship. The National Leadership Award will award $5,000 to a student. Two things to note: while the Cleveland and San Diego awards have specific residency requirements, the National Award does not; and the National Award requires applicants to be first-generation students, but the Cleveland and San Diego awards do not.
