OUR MISSION
The members of Top Ladies of Distinction, Inc. established the Franchell Boswell Educational Foundation in 1989 to serve and strengthen the African American community. The Foundation has focused its efforts on providing higher education opportunities and leadership development for young people.
The Foundation is committed to providing resources to build new generations that are prepared to assume the responsibilities and challenges of this 21st century.
Through scholarships and grants, the Foundation is working to nurture and support young people to ensure that they are prepared to become leaders and good citizens in a meaningful and prosperous future.
The Franchell Boswell Educational Foundation, Inc. bid farewell to three dedicated, exceptional former board members who served this foundation well. These sisters in service, Gwendolyn Ivory Robinson (Area V), Jackie Wilcher (Area II), Veronica Nesbitt (Area I) and Betty Edwards (Area VI) provided their considerable resources, talents and know-how during their collective years of service. Each of these former directors was presented with a beautiful memento representing a tangible “thank you” for their outstanding service to the Franchell Boswell Educational Foundation, Inc. Again, we thank them for their service and best wishes for all future endeavors!
