Leadership and Resource Giving

As the initial research years have passed from 1995 to the present, these pioneering individuals have given generously of their time and numerous resources to the continual growth and rich development of the black experience at MIT.  This list will expand as we seek your participation in giving to the continual research of MIT Black History.  We hope you will contribute to MIT Black History as well.

Thank You!

Celebrating MIT Capital Givers

As we continue with a new chapter of giving through the MIT Capital Fund, The Blacks at MIT History Project would like to thank those who have supported us with their generous gifts in the past, present, and future.  A new initiative begins with the MIT Crowdfund site (through the end of June 2015) in contributing your financial support to this ongoing research project.  "The Grid" is one of a series of image "mosaics" denoting our capital contributing supporters.

Thank You
