“ The mission of the Urban League movement is to
enable African Americans to secure economic self-
reliance, parity, power and civil rights. Today more
than ever before, that means preparing our youth for
college and career. We know that Baltimore youth
have unlimited potential but face limited life chances.
Please join us to unleash it.”–J. HOWARD HENDERSON, PRESIDENT & CEO OF GBUL
