The HARRIS SHEARD Foundation® is launching THE BBI™ ACADEMY CAMPAIGN™, a grassroots community capital initiative to help develop a new community-serving campus in Pine Bluff, Arkansas.

What if a building could become more than a building?

What if it could become a place where a young athlete prepares for college, a resident accesses Wi-Fi to complete a job application, a student learns about entrepreneurship, a family participates in a health program, and members of the community have a safe place to exercise, learn, connect, and grow?

That is the vision behind THE BBI™ ACADEMY CAMPAIGN.

The HARRIS SHEARD Foundation®, a nonprofit organization, is building community support for a proposed campus in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, designed to bring athletics, education, health, workforce development, technology, and community resources together under one roof.

We are giving the community an opportunity to be a part of funding this historic project. In return, the facility will offer programs that provide access to the community it serves and recognition for those who have been instrumental in helping to build this hub.
