The Fellowship Initiative:

Improving Educational Outcomes for Young Men

Too many young people face daunting odds as they attempt to navigate the challenges of high school and the prospect of college and the workplace. For young men of color, particularly those from economically distressed communities, the challenges of poor educational opportunities and few positive role models can put high school graduation and the economic promise of a college degree out of reach. Beginning in 2010, the JPMorgan Chase Foundation launched a three-year pilot to see if the right combination of intensive academic and leadership training could help young men of color complete their high school educations and gain admission to top-rated colleges and universities. The Fellowship Initiative (TFI) brought together 24 young men of color in New York City in a comprehensive enrichment program that offered them the academic, social and emotional supports they needed to achieve personal and professional success.

Thanks to TFI and the work of the fellows, every student gained admission to a four-year college program and, collectively, they received scholarships and grants totaling more than $8 million. More than half of TFI Fellows will be the first in their family to attend college. JPMorgan Chase is proud to support innovative projects that help disadvantaged young people gain access to the knowledge, skills and experiences they need to compete in a challenging global economy.
