ABOUT TMCF
Established in 1987 by Dr. N. Joyce Payne, the Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF) is the nation’s largest organization exclusively representing the Black college community. TMCF member schools include the publicly supported historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs), historically Black community colleges (HBCCs) and predominantly Black institutions (PBIs).
The Thurgood Marshall College Fund carries forward the legacy of Justice Thurgood Marshall by offering pathways to economic mobility and lucrative careers for HBCU students. Through scholarships, upskilling, equity programs and career opportunities, TMCF champions the ambitious spirit of HBCU students while advancing the work of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). TMCF promotes DEI by designing strategies and curating programs to attract and retain diverse talent for its corporate partners. TMCF’s advocacy for the sustainability of HBCUs reinforces its critical role in achieving its social justice mission, uplifting the African American community and creating a more equitable society.
