Make the first Black Student Summit a Success!

A fundraiser for: United Way of Delaware (UWDE)

Organization Mission:

At United Way of Delaware, we're answering the call to help our community thrive. We're working to ensure kids can read on grade level by third grade, support career and college success for youth, connect families to vital resources through Delaware 211, and empower individuals with the tools they need to achieve financial stability. It’s about creating lasting change that lifts up everyone, not just offering temporary fixes.

Too many of young adults in high school have the desire to change their communities to make them more equitable, but not the resources, training, & community to do it. 

On April 9, 2022; we want to change that. 

Much like the purpose of the National Black Student Alliance (NBSA) serves to provide Black students and their allies a community, brave space and the opportunity for change, so too does Delaware’s first Black Student Summit seek to empower our next generation of leaders. This event is designed to wrap training and education around students who are or seek to become members of their school’s Black Student Union/Association. It’s also designed to create a new network for students connect and plug into resources and appropriate adult support. The theme student selected theme for this year is Amplify Black Youth Voices.  The Summit is meant to refuel, train, and uplift students and the adults that support them. We will offer training and education during the Summit to help students understand why it’s important to use their voice and how it do it appropriately. 

We need YOUR help to make this a success. 

Every dollar counts. Thank you in advance to supporting our these young adults in their journeys to greatness.
