Our Focus

The Mabel Horton and Billy Jones Foundation is dedicated to addressing the various barriers that underrepresented individuals face when it comes to accessing necessary resources and mentorship for higher education. These barriers encompass a wide range of challenges, including limited financial resources, lack of quality education, limited exposure to mentors and role models, as well as systemic inequalities and social and cultural barriers. Our foundation firmly believes in the importance of breaking down these barriers and creating an inclusive and equitable environment. We are dedicated to fostering a supportive and empowering atmosphere that enables underrepresented youth to thrive and achieve their aspirations. By providing the necessary resources, mentorship programs, and advocating for systemic changes, we aim to ensure that every individual, regardless of their background, has equal opportunities to succeed in higher education.
