Inner City Youth.
We provide educational resources and financial support to inner city youth so they can receive the higher education they want to fulfil their life goals.

51% of college students dropped out of school due to costs.
Student loan debt is now $1.6 trillion.
66% employees holding a bachelor's degree take home an average of 66% more income than those with a high school diploma.
Earning a Master's or Doctorate Degree could increase lifetime earnings more than 300%.
50% of the college population are first-generation students.
23% of undergraduate students work more than 20 hours per week.
Survivors.
We provide educational resources and financial support that empower survivors to leave abusive relationships so they can build a life they truly desire.
Why Should You Support Domestic Abuse Survivors?
On average, nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States. During one year, this equates to more than 10 million women and men.
1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men experience severe intimate partner physical violence, intimate partner contact sexual violence, and/or intimate partner stalking with impacts such as injury, fearfulness, post-traumatic stress disorder, use of victim services, contraction of sexually transmitted diseases, etc.
On a typical day, there are more than 20,000 phone calls placed to domestic violence hotlines nationwide.
Intimate partner violence accounts for 15% of all violent crime.
Women between the ages of 18-24 are most commonly abused by an intimate partner.
Only 34% of people who are injured by intimate partners receive medical care for their injuries.
Domestic victimization is correlated with a higher rate of depression and suicidal behavior.
NUK aims to provide at least 5 Full Ride Scholarships up to $125k and 5 Partial Scholarships up to $25k to inner city youth and support resources to domestic violence survivors.
