Dr. Maya Angelou Foundation Awards Scholarships to HBCUs

The Dr. Maya Angelou Foundation continues to celebrate the life and honor the legacy of Dr. Angelou. As we celebrate her love for humanity, may we reflect on and embody her message of love, peace, generosity, gratitude, equality, equity, and justice for all.


The Foundation fulfills its mission by awarding deserving students scholarships to attend historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs). Dr. Angelou strongly believed in the importance of HBCUs as a significant driver in building a strong and vibrant middle class in the United States.
