Every minority youth deserves a path to succeed.
The 2nd Century Invictus Fund builds and funds the programs that turn opportunity into outcomes for the next generation of leaders: STEM education, mentoring and scholarships.
Building leaders,
transforming lives.
Everything we do begins with a single belief: every minority youth should have the resources, mentorship and opportunity required to succeed.
We raise and deploy funds through signature events, including the Drive 4 Knowledge golf classic and Bowl 4 Knowledge, to underwrite scholarships, STEM education and our 1911 Mentoring Program.
Since 1990 we have awarded scholarships to students across our community, and we are now working to give that work a permanent home.
