Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

UNCF'S MISSION IS TO BUILD A ROBUST AND NATIONALLY-RECOGNIZED PIPELINE OF UNDER-REPRESENTED STUDENTS WHO, BECAUSE OF UNCF SUPPORT, BECOME HIGHLY-QUALIFIED COLLEGE GRADUATES AND TO ENSURE THAT OUR NETWORK OF MEMBER INSTITUTIONS IS A RESPECTED MODEL OF BEST (SEE SCHEDULE O) PRACTICE IN MOVING STUDENTS TO AND THROUGH COLLEGE.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TO ENSURE ALL AMERICANS HAVE EQUAL ACCESS TO A COLLEGE EDUCATION THAT PREPARES (SEE SCHEDULE O) THEM FOR RICH INTELLECTUAL LIVES, COMPETITIVE AND FULFILLING CAREERS, ENGAGED CITIZENSHIP AND SERVICE TO OUR NATION.UNCF HAS HELPED MORE THAN 500,000 STUDENTS EARN THEIR COLLEGE DEGREES SINCE ITS FOUNDING IN 1944. UNCF IS THE NATION'S LARGEST PRIVATE SCHOLARSHIP PROVIDER TO MINORITY GROUP MEMBERS. EACH YEAR, WE AWARD MORE THAN $100 MILLION IN SCHOLARSHIPS TO STUDENTS ATTENDING MORE THAN 1,100 SCHOOLS ACROSS THE COUNTRY, INCLUDING OUR PRESTIGIOUS NETWORK OF 37 MEMBER HBCUS. UNCF MEMBER HBCUS ARE KNOWN FOR THEIR ACHIEVEMENTS - AWARDING UNDERGRADUATE AND GRADUATED DEGREES - PROVIDING IMPRESSIVE RESULTS THROUGH RESEARCH AND PROMOTING ECONOMIC BENEFITS THAT YIELD MAJOR IMPACT FOR THEIR COMMUNITIES, REGIONS, STATES, THE NATION, AND THE WORLD.

  • DIRECT PROGRAM EXPENDITURES RELATED TO DISBURSEMENTS OF SCHOLARSHIPS AND COSTS FOR EVALUATING ELIGIBILITY FOR SCHOLARSHIPS AND EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH PROVIDING TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO MEMBER SCHOOLS AND OTHER INSTITUTIONS.THE WORK OF UNCF'S GROWING PORTFOLIO OF SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMS IS UNRIVALED AND INCLUDES A VARIETY OF SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMS MANAGED BY UNCF, SUCH AS THE FUND II FOUNDATION UNCF STEM SCHOLARS PROGRAM, UNCF/KOCH SCHOLARS PROGRAM, K-12 EDUCATION FELLOWSHIP AND THE FREDERICK DOUGLASS BICENTENNIAL SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM. THE PANDA CARES SCHOLARS PROGRAM HAS EXPANDED TO A THREE-YEAR RENEWABLE SCHOLARSHIP AWARD, AND THE FUND II STEM SCHOLARS PROGRAM COMPLETED ITS THIRD (SEE SCHEDULE O)COHORT, CONTINUING TO BUILD ON AN IMPRESSIVE RECORD OF STUDENT OUTCOMES. THE WALTON FELLOWS PROGRAM, AN EDUCATIONAL REFORM PROGRAM AIMED AT HELPING INFORM NEW EDUCATORS ON HOW TO IMPROVE THE K-12 EDUCATION SYSTEM FROM THE INSIDE OUT, CELEBRATED ITS 10TH YEAR. TOGETHER, THESE UNCF SCHOLARSHIP AND STUDENT PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT (INTERNSHIP) PROGRAMS AS WELL AS DOZENS OF OTHER SCHOLARSHIPS, INTERNSHIPS, FELLOWSHIPS AND FACULTY DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES ADD UP TO SOME OF THE NEWEST, BEST, AND STRONGEST OFFERINGS UNCF HAS FOR STUDENTS AND EDUCATORS, WITH MUCH MORE TO COME. HELPING YOUNG PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY AFRICAN AMERICAN AND OTHER MINORITY STUDENTS, GET AN EDUCATION THAT STARTS ON THE FIRST DAY OF PRESCHOOL AND DOESN'T END UNTIL COLLEGE GRADUATION IS WHAT UNCF IS ALL ABOUT. A THREE-PILLAR STRATEGY GUIDES OUR MISSION: POSITIONING MEMBER INSTITUTIONS AS A VIABLE COLLEGE OPTION FOR STUDENTS AND INVESTING IN INSTITUTIONAL CAPACITY TO IMPROVE STUDENT OUTCOMES; CREATING TRANSFORMATIONAL SUPPORT PROGRAMS TO ENSURE STUDENTS ARE ENROLLING AND PERSISTING THROUGH COLLEGE COMPLETION; BUILDING AWARENESS OF EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT AND CULTIVATING COLLEGE-GOING BEHAVIORS WITHIN THE AFRICAN AMERICAN COMMUNITY. THE ONGOING RAPID RISE IN THE COST OF COLLEGE ATTENDANCE, THE INABILITY TO EARN FUNDS DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC AND DECREASING FINANCIAL AID HAVE CAUSED MORE AND MORE STUDENTS TO APPLY TO UNCF FOR ASSISTANCE EACH YEAR. HOWEVER, WE CAN SUPPORT ONLY ONE OUT OF EVERY 10 STUDENTS WHO APPLIES. THESE STUDENTS ARE OUR FUTURE HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, SOCIAL WORKERS, TEACHERS, GOVERNMENT POLICY MAKERS, ENTREPRENEURS, BUSINESS LEADERS AND MILITARY MEN AND WOMEN - THEY ARE THE FUTURE PROSPERITY OF OUR NATION. WE THANK ALL DONORS, PAST AND CURRENT FOR THEIR FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND VOLUNTEERISM AND HOPE NEW DONORS ARE INSPIRED TO SUPPORT UNCF'S WORTHY MISSION BY GIVING AS DEEPLY AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE "A MIND IS A TERRIBLE THING TO WASTE, BUT A WONDERFUL THING TO INVEST IN."

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
