Building Legacies.
Changing Lives.
Empowering Atlanta students attending Morehouse College and Spelman College through academic scholarships, youth support, and community leadership.
Our Core Pillars
Academic Scholarships
Financial assistance for incoming freshmen at Morehouse and Spelman Colleges, removing barriers so talent — not finances — determines destiny.
Leadership & Mentorship
Connecting students with corporate leaders and community mentors who invest their time, wisdom, and networks in the next generation.
Community Impact
Direct investments in Atlanta Public Schools classrooms and youth programs, building the pipeline from APS to HBCU excellence.
A family's legacy is measured not by what they kept, but by what they gave.
Our Mission
Founded in honor of the Jennings family's enduring commitment to education and community, our foundation exists to ensure that financial hardship never stands between a deserving student and a world-class HBCU education. We believe in the transformative power of Morehouse and Spelman — and in the Atlanta students who carry that legacy forward.
Rooted in Atlanta. Invested in Excellence.
Our Impact in Action
In 2025, the Jennings Family Legacy Foundation proudly awarded the inaugural $1,867 James Jennings Jr. Scholarship to Amir, an exceptional scholar entering Morehouse College. Through annual corporate partnerships and donor contributions, we continue to remove financial barriers for future leaders.
