Black-owned businesses and HBCUs, lifting each other up
Every time a school brings the crowd, for class, homecoming or game day, we send that crowd to the Black-owned restaurants, food trucks and venues around it. And we invite those businesses to stand behind their school.
649Black-owned businesses listed
102HBCUs covered so far
How it works
- We put Black-owned first. Every school page on Oddusee H.B.C.U opens with the Black-owned spots near campus and near the stadium, so students, families and fans know where to spend.
- Businesses stand behind their school. Offer a student or game-day special, host or cater school events, or make a gift to the school.
- The money goes straight to the school. Gifts are made on each school's official giving page. Oddusee never holds your money.
- Everyone can see the impact. Oddusee tracks every pledge and gift, works with schools to point support toward campus and neighborhood upgrades, and posts the projects right here.
Where the money goes
The first campus and neighborhood upgrade projects will be posted here as pledges come in, with who made them happen and how far along they are.
