The United Black Family Scholarship Foundation (UBFSF, hereafter) is a 501c3 nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the social and economic conditions of underserved communities. The organization was incorporated on May 22, 2014, in the State of Oklahoma.

Our mission is to create a culture of higher learning within these communities. We advance education not in the strict sense of “credentialism,” rather education as it pertains to empowering men and women to deal critically and creatively with reality and discover how to participate in the transformation of their world. We “turn-up” on literacy as it relates to informing people as to the nature of the various institutional and cultural forces which shape their beliefs, behavior and value systems.
We are getting to the heart of the problems before our communities which are plagued by ignorance on all levels—from the streets to the school house.
