The Executives’ Alliance to Expand Opportunities for Boys and Men of Color, launched in April 2013, is a growing network of national, regional, and community foundations. Our 30 member institutions engage in a broad array of initiatives and activities to support boys and men of color, including the recently announced White House public-private partnership My Brother’s Keeper. We applaud the nine alliance members and other foundations for joining the Obama administration in this important initiative.
The Executives’ Alliance is committed to:
- Using our collective and individual voices to affirm the value and contributions of boys and men of color as indispensable to our nation’s success
- Focusing the attention of policy makers to address and dismantle structural barriers to opportunity for boys and men of color; and
- Increasing, leveraging and coordinating investments such that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts
We are open to all philanthropic organizations that want to invest in America’s future by giving their support toward expanding opportunity for boys and men of color. We offer a venue for philanthropic organizations with a shared focus to connect with each other.
