Our 501(c)(3) provides college scholarships, one-on-one mentorship support as well as professional development to African American male students impacted by Chicago’s gun violence.

Thanks to the community’s commitment to male youth development, the Ezekiel Taylor Scholarship Foundation has awarded more than $200,000 in scholarships in just eight years of service.  We’re excited to award more scholarships at our 2024 Scholarship Gala & Fundraiser on Saturday, July 27, 2024, at the Hilton Chicago Oak Lawn.

We would truly benefit from a $1000 gala table financial or ‘in-kind’ donation (gift cards) from your organization for our silent auction. Funds raised from our gala & auction directly supports scholarships.

We hope that your organization will join us in supporting our cause. In return for your financial sponsorship and/or in-kind donation, we will offer the following promotional consideration:

• Recognition on our website: www.EZTaylor.org
• Recognition on our auction signage page: www.BiddingOwl.com
• Social media recognition: @EZTaylorFDN

Last year’s online auction was groundbreaking in that it reached more than a million viewers as we celebrated the lives of African American males. Please join us in making a difference in these young lives.
