Mission Statement
In 2011, Dr. Maya Angelou created The Foundation to serve as the dynamic personification of her philanthropic legacy and lifelong mission to support educational excellence and healthcare equity initiatives for all.
About This Cause
The Dr. Maya Angelou Foundation honors the life and legacy of world-renowned poet, author and civil rights leader. The Dr. Maya Angelou Foundation fulfills its mission by awarding deserving students scholarships to attend historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs). Dr. Angelou believed in the importance of HBCUs as a significant driver in building a strong, vibrant middle class in America. To date, over 30 HBCUs have been awarded nearly $380,000 in scholarships for worthy students. With additional funding support, our goal is to double the number of scholarships awarded year after year. The Foundation remains honored to serve as a conduit to ensure that all students have access to institutions of academic excellence.
