Fund the Future: Support Black Scholars

Hi everyone,

My name is Michael Stallworth. I recently graduated from UCLA School of Law, and I’m the Founder and CEO of Brothers Beyond — a mentorship program built to empower and uplift Black men pursuing higher education.

This work is deeply personal to me. I created Brothers Beyond because I know what it’s like to navigate these spaces without a roadmap, and I wanted to build the kind of support system I wish I had growing up.

Unfortunately, with so many DEI programs being cut across the country, it’s become incredibly difficult to secure funding for our nonprofit. But the need hasn’t gone away — it’s only grown.

Today, I’m asking for your support. We’re raising funds to cover application fees, test prep, scholarships, and other critical resources for our current cohort. Every dollar makes a real difference in a student’s journey — and no contribution is too small.

Thank you so much for believing in this mission and standing with us.

With gratitude,

Michael
