We envision a world in which every young Black man has access to careers that lead to growth and economic mobility.
About us
Professional advancement should not remain out of reach for young men of color. We know that we can do better, and we know that we must do better. This is going to require creativity, though. At the Durham Success Summit, we are proud to lead the charge, providing opportunities for growth and development in order to set our participants up for long-term success. In short, we are picking up where the schools have left off. We are standing up for the rounded, complete educations that are so elusive for our communities. This is a unique take on education and development – one that considers the gaps that plague traditional programs and hold young Black men and people of color back. Since 2019, the Durham Success Summit helped more than 200 young men create a foundation for their success and develop a network of champions to support their goals.
