FAME’s Mission and Vision

FAME's mission is to educate, empower and embolden African American youth to become student ambassadors of today, leaders of tomorrow and stewards of their communities by providing access to college preparatory education at participating independent schools in the Greater Pittsburgh area through the provision of need based financial assistance.


To accomplish our mission: FAME prepares students for success through attending FAME Academy and partner schools and by providing extensive ongoing programmatic support. Our programs help FAME Scholars develop from academic, extracurricular and holistic life experiences and grow into the leaders of tomorrow. FAME's ultimate goal is to positively impact both the African American Community and society at large through the contribution of its scholars, leaders and programs.
