Hines Foundation Inc.

our mission

Growing up in the inner city of Richmond, Virginia has both advantages and disadvantages. One thing that is evident is the academic, technological, and achievement gap affecting minorities such as African Americans and Hispanics.

During adolescence currently face achievement gaps and “generational curses” that were passed down by parents and ancestors. As the Executive Director of this nonprofit organization, it is my goal to educate African Americans of all ages and inner city youth on our rich history and countless amount of opportunities we have if we tap into our own potential.

This organization pledges to serve African Americans in the Richmond community, more specifically those who are in low-income families, high crime rated neighborhoods, and those who may benefit from assistance with changing their mindset from fixed to growth.
