Next Man Up & Men of Courage Annual HBCU College Trip

The Next Man Up & Men of Courage Annual HBCU College Trip is more than a visit — it’s a moment of awakening for our young men. This year we celebrate our 4th year, Howard, Morgan State and Bowie State were our last stops. This year we are taking our talents to Delaware State, Home of the Hornets! 

This trip places our young kings on sacred ground, where generations of Black excellence were born, nurtured, and celebrated. As they walk the campuses their ancestors, family members, and community trailblazers once walked, they don’t just see college they feel possibility.

This experience allows them to witness the pride, culture, community, and legacy that live within HBCUs. For many, it is their first time truly seeing themselves in a college setting. It expands their vision, strengthens their confidence, and sparks belief in a future they may have never imagined. This trip doesn’t just change a day it changes direction.

This year, we are asking for your help, to sponsor ONE student is $100! This is our cost per student to attend this meaningful trip.
