The Jackie Robinson Foundation (JRF) is a national, non-profit organization that perpetuates the legacy of Jackie Robinson and promotes the values he embodied by addressing the achievement gap in higher education and, soon, through the Jackie Robinson Museum. For 48 years, JRF has provided college scholarships coupled with extensive mentoring and leadership development opportunities for highly motivated students of color with limited financial resources. The Foundation is distinctive for the depth of its mentoring program, which results in a consistent nearly 100% graduation rate among the students it serves.
