Description
The Jerome Burke Foundation's mission is to advocate, encourage and support African American males through scholarship, mentorship, and entrepreneurship. We are committed to supporting other nonprofit organizations that support the dignity of communities and optimize inherent strengths to ensure an equitable outcome among the African American community.
Jerome Burke was born on August 17th; in celebration of his birth, the Foundation honors his life by celebrating him and raising funds for African Americans with an annual casino night. The proceeds from this event go towards the scholarship for African American males who aspire to attend a university or trade school.
