Detroit, MI -- Ford Motor Company Fund, the philanthropic arm of Ford Motor Company, is offering an opportunity for college students, alumni, faculty and administrators at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) to submit an innovative proposal that addresses a mobility need on campus or in their community.
The HBC-You Mobility Challenge is officially open and details regarding the program can be found at http://fgb.life. The last day to submit proposals is March 31, 2019 and winners will be announced in May 2019. The program launch is part of Ford Fund's Black History Month Ford Goes Further in OUR Community campaign.
"Innovative solutions to mobility challenges can not only enable people to get where they need to be but empower them to realize their dreams," said Pamela Alexander, director Ford Motor Company Fund Community Development. "We are proud to partner with the HBCU community on this new initiative."
