The Beverly Divers White Foundation -

Dr. Beverly Divers White intentionally, unapologetically, and courageously defied boundaries in her work as an educator, philanthropist, and social justice advocate.

Despite having a humble beginning and growing up in low income housing projects in Little Rock, Arkansas, Dr. White never allowed traditional or established notions about the roles for black people, women, and educators define—and confine—her. She never hesitated to take on the powerful and the privileged on behalf of the people to tackle injustice wherever it existed. She advocated that all people—especially children—regardless of social or economic situation, should be able to pursue their dream and aspire to their full potential.

Our Mission

The Beverly Divers White Foundation is based on the belief that every child should be able to have and pursue their dream regardless of their economic or social situations. Our foundation addresses economic challenges by providing scholarships and we address social challenges through mentorships. It is one thing to dream about being a doctor, lawyer, engineer, and entrepreneur; through our mentoring program we give children the opportunity to meet with great people who can share their story and provide guidance for them to reach their dream.
