About the Scholarship

A NASA engineer. A media mogul. A Supreme Court Justice. The U.S. Vice President. What do they all have in common?

They all attended a historically black college or university (HBCU).

HBCUs are often praised for their diverse and inclusive educational experience, affordable cost, scholarship opportunities, unique programs, and supportive environment for underserved communities.

The PIVOT Foundation understands the importance of HBCUs and their role in preparing young people for life experiences.

The PIVOT Foundation’s Pivot for a Purpose Scholarship provides financial support to high school students who plan to attend an HBCU.
