Showing kids more so they want more. The Blues Babe Foundation is a nonprofit organization founded by Jill Scott based in Philly. 

The Blues Babe Foundation is a North Philadelphia based launch pad for young brilliance. Our programs are rooted in cultivating academic and artistic success in youth coming from the most underserved communities of North Philadelphia and Camden.  

Our flagship program, Camp Jill Scott, has served over 300 students entering 4th - 7th grade.  It is a leadership development camp created in 2009 to help scholars from North Philadelphia venture outside of their neighborhoods, discover their hidden talents and learn how they can use them to create new pathways for growth. 

Our young scholars need our support now more than ever! With your contribution we can increase our camp size; and eventually return to in person with an overnight component so the kids can really have a vacation, as well as parents. We can help make sure elementary school libraries are open on a consistent basis. We can help the young people dedicated to education get their books, pay some dorm fees, assist with tuition. We can’t do everything, but together we can do something special.

EJI is committed to ending mass incarceration in the US and challenging racial and economic injustice.

Founded in 1989 by Bryan Stevenson, a widely acclaimed public interest lawyer and bestselling author of Just Mercy, EJI is a private, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides legal representation to people who have been illegally convicted, unfairly sentenced, or abused in state jails and prisons. We challenge the death penalty and excessive punishment and we provide re-entry assistance to formerly incarcerated people.

EJI works with communities that have been marginalized by poverty and discouraged by unequal treatment. We are committed to changing the narrative about race in America. EJI produces groundbreaking reports, an award-winning wall calendar, and short films that explore our nation’s history of racial injustice, and we recently launched an ambitious national effort to create new spaces, markers, and memorials that address the legacy of slavery, lynching, and racial segregation, which shapes many issues today.

EJI provides research and recommendations to assist advocates and policymakers in the critically important work of criminal justice reform. We publish reports, discussion guides, and other educational materials, and our staff conduct educational tours and presentations for thousands of students, teachers, faith leaders, professional associations, community groups, and international visitors every year.
