It began with a simple desire: HBCU graduates in the Twin Cities wanting to find each other. More than twenty years later, that same spirit of connection has grown into a thriving community of alumni dedicated to community, connection, and exposure.

In November 2022, we relaunched our Alumni Gathering with more than 50 graduates reconnecting over food, shared stories, and powerful HBCU pride. In 2023, we continued that momentum with Family Game Night, an HBCU Panel, HBCU Night with the Minnesota Twins, six college fairs, a Fall Networking Mixer, and our inaugural HBCU Send-Off welcoming over 25 incoming and current students. We continue to host these events and gatherings each year, with the number of students and alumni engaged steadily increasing.
