Help Fund the First Born to Belong HBCU Tour

I'm Dr. Ross Jordan, founder and president of The Pay It Forward Project, a nonprofit committed to expanding opportunity for youth. We’re launching our first Born to Belong HBCU Tour, a powerful Spring Break college and culture trip for 9th–12th graders from the Dallas area to visit Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) across the South and engage in some fun cultural experiences. Many of these students aspire to attend some of the best colleges and universities in the country, but haven't had the opportunity to visit them. This tour is designed to change that. We aim to help them see themselves as belonging in spaces of higher learning, leadership, and legacy.

 

We’re raising $20,000 to cover all transportation, lodging, meals, gear, and educational experiences for over 40 students. Your donation will help us give them the exposure, confidence, and access they deserve. The Pay It Forward Project is a newly formed nonprofit with 501(c)(3) recognition, and all support goes directly toward making this transformative opportunity possible. Thank you for investing in their future.
