The Ford Motor Company Fund has announced its third annual HBC-You Mobility Challenge, a competition for Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) students.
Ford is inviting HBCU students alumni, faculty, and staff to submit innovative and new proposals on smart mobility for a chance to win up to $25,000 in grants to get their ideas off the ground.
All proposals must address the theme: Making Lives Better: Changing the Way We Move Through Smart Mobility. Last year’s winners include Morgan State University, which received $25,000 for its proposal to support the school’s food resource center by connecting students to resources and dietary advice through its Freshly (Food Resources & Expanded Shuttle for Healthy Living Year-round) Program.
