The Black UF Experience Fund

The Ancestors Dream Initiative (ADI) exists to fill the gap and fund what matters.

Your gift powers the Ancestors Dream Initiative (ADI), a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit created to support Black student life at the University of Florida.

ADI is more than an organization. It is a movement committed to ensuring Black students have access to the cultural experiences, traditions, leadership opportunities, and community spaces that shape their time at UF. These experiences are rooted in Black culture and open to all students who seek to learn, engage, and build community. Because culture is not optional.

Your tax-deductible contribution supports:

• Sponsorships and grants for Black student organizations

• Cultural celebrations and traditions

• Leadership development opportunities

• Legacy-driven programs and community spaces

• The operational support required to make this work possible

We are not waiting for permission to invest in what our students deserve. We are building it together.

Donate today. Fund the experience.

Join The Black UF Experience Fund and stand for the culture, the legacy, and the students who need us now more than ever.
