2026 Award Recipient

Hearts of Empowerment is proud to announce that we have been selected as a recipient of the Giving Together Grant, securing funding over the next two years to support our mission of breaking the cycle of generational poverty.

Following an extensive selection process and competing alongside some of the leading nonprofits in the Washington, D.C. area, Hearts advanced to the final two organizations before ultimately being selected as a grant recipient. This recognition is a testament to the impact of our work, the dedication of our team, and our commitment to creating meaningful opportunities for the young people and families we serve.

This two-year investment will help strengthen our efforts to empower DC youth through educational programming, college readiness, mentorship, and holistic student support. As we continue expanding our reach and deepening our impact, this partnership represents an important step forward in ensuring more students have access to the resources, guidance, and opportunities they need to succeed.

We are incredibly grateful to Giving Together for believing in our mission and investing in our vision for a stronger, more equitable community. We look forward to building on this momentum and continuing to create lasting change across Washington, D.C.
