HBCU IMPACT is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit, created to attract, educate and employ students at Historically Black colleges and universities into careers in insurance, risk management, financial services and law. We started in 2018 at Morehouse by sponsoring one student who showed interest in a career in the insurance industry. In 2019 we continued with establishing formal programming by way of our on campus Insurance Institutes. In 2020, we powered through the COVID pandemic with online programming to reach more schools and enable our industry sponsors and partners to promote their brands in the HBCU community.

THROWBACK! Our 2024 Fall Symposium was lifechanging. Don't believe us? Hear from one of our students: “I’ve never seen that many companies (as the many represented at the HBCU IMPACT® Fall Symposium). That really opened my eyes. It made me realize that I don’t have to stay in one state or go back home to work. There are different companies all over the world, all over America. I really appreciated that because I do believe that I don’t have to limit myself.” - Alexia Davis, Miles College If you'd like to sponsor an upcoming event, get in touch with us today and let's change the face of the industry! #insuranceissexy #insuranetoucheseverything

Who's hiring college grads right NOW? The insurance industry, and that's why we do what we do: connecting top talent with an industry ready to receive them. https://lnkd.in/g-XdNTkR #insuranceissexy #insurancetoucheseverything
The unemployment rate among recent college graduates jumped to 5.8% in March, the highest reading since 2021. Opportunities are growing scarce, and that's precisely why the work of HBCU IMPACT is SO critical right now. We are putting students on track to 6-figure careers in a recession-proof industry that values talent. #isurancetoucheseverything #insuranceisexy
