Creating A Path For Our Youth

Friends of FAM, Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based in Atlanta, GA consisting of a board of passionate FAMU alumni who are committed to providing mentorship and direct financial assistance in the form of scholarships to deserving, enrolled FAMU students from the Atlanta metropolitan area.

Our Why

Paying for college can be a daunting task, particularly for out-of-state students. The high cost of tuition, room and board, books, and other expenses can create significant financial barriers for many students. Our primary goal is to raise funding that directly goes to scholarship applicants each year, providing them with stability and ease of mind as they venture into the world of college.

Since 2016

Be Out Day Scholars

Our scholars are carefully selected from a rigorous interview process and represent the best and brightest of FAMU students from the Atlanta Metropolitan Area.
