You're Invited

Register to join the Howard Homecoming Leadership Summit —and you’re a speaker. Every registrant gets stage time: a 3-minute journey-to-impact story and one recommendation on how you’d deploy $100B and AI with HBCUs to reduce youth violence and improve affordability. Remote participation available.

Why this Summit matters

Harvard alumni have run a similar summit for 25 years—a network credited with fueling Barack Obama’s Senate and Presidential rise. If Harvard can do it, the real HU can do it bigger, broader, and for the benefit of DC and HBCU communities nationwide. We’re uniting alumni, partners, and friends to drive tangible solutions and sustained giving for Howard Law, STEM4US!, and a safer, more affordable DC.
