We seek to radically redesign how philanthropy connects with diverse Black leaders in education by providing those leaders with ample, flexible support.
We are The 1954 Project. Together with our allies, we invest in initiatives that will increase the number of Black educators and leaders throughout the education landscape; that will create more effective and culturally affirming teaching and learning models; and that will strengthen pathways from education to career in order to drive economic mobility in the Black community.
We come together as a wide and inclusive body to chart a course that creates opportunities for Black education leaders to access the capital, thought partnership, and resources necessary to create deep, positive, and enduring impact.
