This #PrideMonth 🏳️🌈, Xceleader encourages today’s generation of student leaders to use their platforms to expand opportunities for all students, ensuring that their campus is a safe space to educate, organize and for others to express themselves freely.
The existence of our campuses have historically been viewed as a threat since the founding of our institutions and our strength as a community, including students, staff, administrators and alumni, will continue to keep us safe from today’s rising threats.
We’re back! After 211 applicants, we’re excited to welcome our 2025 cohort of the Vote HBCU Fellowship Program. This year, our students represent @SpelmanCollege, @du1869, @Norfolkstate and @XULA1925.
Our fellows will join us on tour with our partner @HeadCountOrg. 🗳️
Thank you, Nashville! Last Thursday, we brought together our community of HBCU alumni, students and supporters to our Awards Dinner to celebrate our impact and honor those driving change.
During the dinner, we exceeded our goal— raising $43K in donations to deepen our impact.
Today, @xceleader’s Vote HBCU Program is proud to introduce The Union— a national student-led council where HBCU students organize, lead, and cultivate change through community.
