DiversityInc - May 2008

DiversityInc is funding scholarships In 2007 we donated more than $200,000 to support scholarships and nonprofit organizations.

Bennett College for Women: We sponsor unrestricted funds via the United Negro College Fund, which matches donations.

New Jersey City University: We sponsor students to take the CPA prep course and sponsor an endowed scholarship for students with an interest in media and business.

Rutgers University: Through the Equal Opportunity Fund, we sponsor an endowed scholarship for students with an interest in business and media. Through the Rutgers Foundation, we sponsor the Women’s Fund and the Scholars Training and Enrichment Program (STEP).

We also sponsor scholarships for student members of the United Negro College Fund and the National Society of Hispanic MBAs.

The Mission of the DiversityInc Foundation is to fund scholarships for financially disadvantaged students. Founded in 2006 by Luke Visconti and Foulis Peacock, our goal is to donate 2 percent of the gross revenue of DiversityInc Media LLC via the DiversityInc Foundation.

Our programs currently include funding scholarships at three schools and two diversity-related nonprofit organizations. They include: Bennett College for Women (a historically Black college); New Jersey City University (a Hispanic-serving institution and minority-serving institution); Rutgers University; the United Negro College Fund; and the National Society of Hispanic MBAs.

The DiversityInc Foundation raises funds primarily through fees to DiversityInc Partner and Cofounder Luke Visconti for speaking engagements. We also accept direct corporate donations. Donations may be directed at a specific area of concern and the DiversityInc Foundation will channel the funds to the best program at one of the schools we support.
