We've set a BOLD goal. To ignite the potential of one million youth by 2040—starting now in our communities, and building a model of hope and opportunity that others can follow.

This campaign is our next step forward.

With your help, $150,000 will fund financial literacy programs, open doors to college through scholarships, and launch new, innovative opportunities for young leaders—fueling generational change that you'll make possible.

It's a marathon not a sprint.

What We’ve Accomplished Together

For 15 years, the Malcolm Jenkins Foundation has been transforming lives and creating opportunity—impacting more than 113,000 youth and families across underserved communities.

$224,000+ in scholarships awarded
6,000 students mentored in life skills
1,000 youth empowered through financial literacy
100,000+ individuals supported with food and health resources
Hundreds of students inspired through S.T.E.A.M. education

And this is only the beginning.

With your support, we can fuel the next 15 years of impact—expanding pathways, amplifying voices, and building brighter futures.

Our Mission

Expand economic opportunity for youth in underserved communities through culturally grounded education, financial literacy, and career pathway programs—empowering the next generation to build lasting security and wealth.

Legacy Voices - Behind the Mission

Our impact is not just measured in numbers—it lives in the stories of those we serve.

Throughout this campaign, we’ll be sharing the journeys of scholarship recipients, community partners, volunteers, and program participants. Each story is a testament to resilience, growth, and hope.

These stories reveal how your support transforms lives, families, and communities.

When you give, you’re not just funding programs—you’re investing in futures.

What We’re Building Now

Scholarships & Financial Literacy – disrupting cycles of poverty by providing tools for education and wealth creation.
G.L.O.W. (Greatness Lives in Our Words) – fostering voice, identity, and narrative to empower young people to shape their own future through storytelling, art, and game design.
Power Pathway Academy – equips youth with confidence, career exposure, and opportunity—empowering them to achieve economic security, generational wealth, and drive change in their communities.
Community Outreach – Get Ready Fest® and Holiday Basket Surprise initiatives providing essential support where it’s needed most.

Your Support Matters Now More Than Ever

Food insecurity is rising
Educational gaps are widening
Doors of opportunity are closing
The wealth divide is deepening
And youth of color are suffering the most

But Here's What We Know:

Every contribution has exponential impact—because the earlier we reach a young person, the greater the lifetime effect.

Campaign Goal: $150,000

Scaling to one million youth by 2040 will take all of us.

Your generosity is the fuel that makes this vision possible.
