HOLLYWOOD HOMECOMING WEEKEND
THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME
Hollywood Homecoming Weekend (HHW) is an annual experience that brings together entrepreneurs, artists and brands to engage the Los Angeles community, fund scholarships for underserved youth and raise awareness of Historically Black Colleges & Universities (HBCU). The inaugural event promotes students furthering their education with a variety of activities and a cross-section of representation between artists, brands and entrepreneurs.
STRIVING TO MAKE HIGHER LEARNING A REALITY
We measure wealth in terms of education and are working to close equity gaps in communities of color by arming them with information and possibilities. It's time to close that gap for good.
Through HBCU education and admission resources, scholarships, and events, we offer a platform where higher learning is a realistic goal for Black and Brown youth, and we set an example that anything is possible no matter your circumstances.
LEARN MOREA CATALYST FOR CHANGE
In the Los Angeles metro area, only 18% of Black students are enrolled in AP classes, putting their college preparedness at a disadvantage relative to their counterparts. We want to change that.
HHW aims to increase HBCU admissions and fill the information vacuum that exists in poverty-stricken communities by helping our youth navigate the college experience and find resources tailored to their unique needs.
