For almost 60 years, our commitment to creating leaders of color who can assume great responsibility and change the nation has never wavered. This was no different in 2020, despite the challenges and roadblocks we faced. Our efforts yielded incredible results and A Better Chance is proud to have welcomed 711 Cohort members and placed 523 Scholars into Member Schools this year!

These results were made possible through the unwavering support of our community who answered our call for direct relief, sustaining our services when our Scholars and families needed us most. Through their efforts, we have secured 50% of lost revenue from the cancellation of our in-person Annual Awards Luncheon, however, a $500,000 gap remains. We need your help now, on Giving Tuesday, to restore our operational revenue.

By helping us reach our $17,523 goal, representing our nearly 17,000 Alumni and 523 new Scholars, we can continue to serve and protect our students and families to ensure the opportunities created by A Better Chance are available for the next generation. Now more than ever, our country will look to our young Scholars for their vision, talents, and ability to solve the daunting issues that challenge our nation. We must ensure they can deliver. It is in this spirit, we ask you to support A Better Chance on December 1st in two ways:

1. Directly support A Better Chance through a donation on December 1

2. Hold a fundraiser for A Better Chance with your friends and family

Without your help, harsh realities will be faced and opportunities will be lost. We need your investment now to ensure we continue to offer life-changing educational opportunities to talented students of color.

Special Benefit for Donors and Fundraisers!

Supporters who donate or raise $500 and greater will receive a special thank you video message from a current A Better Chance Scholar!
