Sure that it is known that the African American high school dropout rate in too many urban communities exceeds 50%.  This is identified by many individuals and organizations as being a crisis.  Did you know that in 1860, only 10 out of 100 African Americans could read or write?  Communities are seeing its children not graduating from FREE HIGH SCHOOL OPPORTUNITIES?  What can we DO TODAY to invest in the future...a future about which many of our ancestors could have only dreamed?  HBCU kidz, Inc. believes that PREVENTION is our most POTENT weapon to win this battle of apathy.

If your company, family or organization  has a commitment to or interest in enhancing awareness of the cultural and educational opportunities available at our nation’s Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and inspiring youth to treat education seriously, then we believe you will find our campaign to increase enrollments at HBCUs a perfect complement to your multi-cultural marketing initiatives.

HBCU Today, published by BEE Publishing Division, is the most comprehensive resource guide ever created on HBCUs. It is vital to youth considering post-secondary education, as well as those parents, guardians, teachers, counselors, and youth leaders who have chosen to be responsible for ensuring that our youth receive the information needed to intelligently evaluate educational choices.

This unique book is not sold through bookstores or retail outlets. Distribution of HBCU Today is solely through individuals, companies, and organizations that have chosen to support the future of minority youth and promote the importance of our HBCUs.  HBCU kidz, Inc. is a proud distributor of this awesome resource guide.

The guide provides articles of information, stories about various aspects of life on the campuses of black colleges and universities, brief testimonials from students, faculty and alumni and brief profiles of each of the 100+ Historically Black Colleges and Universities all presented in a graphically appealing manner. The book is an 8 ½ x 11” format, approximately 320 pages and 2.5 lbs in weight.

As an additional distribution vehicle for HBCU Today, your company, family, fraternity, sorority or organization has a unique opportunity to play a significant role in increasing enrollment at HBCUs—and enhancing your corporate brand identity through association with the education of our minority youth. With the nationwide high school dropout rate for minority youth approaching 50 percent (and, sadly, higher in many urban communities), it is more important than ever to include our youth in corporate and organizational cause-related marketing.  Product is easily and conveniently available 3 ways.

 I Did It Nanna's Way
When Carly was six, her father walked out. When she was ten, her mother left. It is Nanna who steps in and raises Carly and her sister, Lissa. Come into the world of a 13-year-old girl who strives to be a teenager with values and integrity, while facing the joys and pains of adolescence—peer pressure, class politics, unpredictable relationships, and intense competition. Readers will be able to relate to Carly, as she struggles to have a life filled with meaning and purpose.  

Carly Finds Out
Although Carly’s mom left when she was ten, she continues to expect her mom’s return. Having led a sheltered life with her sister, under the guidance of her protective Nanna, Carly is introduced to a new life--high school. In this book, Rena Roberts Shipp allows readers to peer into a realistic view of Carly’s life, her feelings, and experiences as she asserts her adolescent independence.

Rena Roberts Shipp, born and raised in Cleveland County, North Carolina, received her bachelor’sdegree from HBCU Johnson C. Smith University in Charlotte. After teaching sixth grade language arts in local schools for three years, she settled in Tappahannock, VA

with her husband and son.

The deep interest in children’s well-being that made Rena a gifted teacher made her also a lifelong learner. She taught full-time while completing a master’s degree in education from Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, VA with emphasis in reading, and then earned credentials in counseling and administration. (Click to read more)

The "We The People Education and Community Investment Project" is named for a poem (titled We The People) that has encouraged and warmed the hearts of many. It was written by our founder, Mozell Fleming, who although never had the financial help to receive higher education, has decided to dedicate his efforts to providing financial resources for our children, our schools and community. 

A special edition of this poem is available on this site. In celebration of our national launch we are inviting you to become an exclusive partner and member of the project and help us -pay the price- by sowing into our children, our future. You can join us in our efforts by ordering directly from this site or by contacting us to order these 13x19 posters in bulk amounts as a fundraising tool for your specific needs ( minimum bulk orders start at $350.00 in price and 100 units in quantity). 

Our participants are set to raise thousands of dollars by investing in these unique posters and selling them at their own retail value or you can simply display them as artwork in your home, office or institution. Not only will you be helping yourselves, but also you will be investing into the education of our young bright minds and the growth of our communities as we will develop a funding pool for scholarships and other community needs. Please contact us for more information about our project. Thank you for your consideration and participation!

Many children wonder, "How do I master self-control in my classroom?" My elementary school uses a tool that rewards behavior that is "on green". This means that you behaved well and completed your tasks. My mommy and I developed this little book to help other children "get on green" each day!

Teaching In Elementary Schools: The Real Deal has been written with a single purpose in mind. This purpose is to raise the awareness of the general public about what the total picture of teaching implies.

While the book grew out of experiences as an elementary teachers for more than 32 years, it is not just for teachers. People of all  professions need to know that teaching is the most important job in the world. My aim is to raise the awareness of what the job of teaching entails.
