About Us
The EY Parker Foundation is a Not-For-Profit organization founded to support community youth now and in the future. We sincerely believe in giving back, offering goodwill, and paying our gifts forward.
We are dedicated to supporting high school and college-age black/latino youth through scholarships, mentorships, and educational programs. Our goal is to nurture talent, foster ambition, and create opportunities that enable young individuals to reach their full potential and become the leaders of tomorrow.
Our Mission
We believe that maturity does not come with age but with the acceptance of responsibility. Our mission is to develop and strengthen students' self-dependency effectively, efficiently, and with style. We don't just want our students to set goals, but to also reach them!
The EY Parker Foundation is established to encourage and enlighten our future savant students by providing a HBCU campus tour. This tour will give them the experience to engage in the camaraderie of the HBCU lifestyle and culture.
HBCU Campus Tour
Our flagship program is the HBCU campus tour, designed to give students the experience of engaging in the camaraderie of the HBCU lifestyle and culture. This tour provides invaluable insights into college life and helps students make informed decisions about their higher education journey.
Prior to visiting HBCU schools, The EY Parker Foundation offers programs to equip students on how to traverse to the next level:
Academic preparation
Social skills development
Mental health awareness
Spiritual growth
Financial literacy
Additional Youth Development Programs
Panel discussions
Personal financial management workshops
Budgeting and investing seminars
Self-care awareness sessions
Guidance on interacting with school advisors
Diversity and Christian values discussions
Your donation can make a significant impact on the lives of our future savant students. Help us provide transformative HBCU campus tours and preparatory programs.
