Living our values every day.

Join us for a seven-city tour across the Deep South to get a taste of the African American heritage and culture that our 2025 Fellows will experience.
What we do.
At the Hancock Foundation, our programs bring our vision to life. Our Fellowship aims to build and elevate young Fellows’ understanding of African American history and culture, while our bi-annual speaker series brings together thought leaders and luminaries to discuss cultural and societal topics that impact us all.
Make an impact.
When you make a tax-deductible donation to the Hancock Foundation, you are making a difference in the future of our communities. Your generosity will support our mission of increasing cultural understanding and awareness, leading to a more culturally open and competent society.
“Look back for strength, move forward for progress!”
