About us
The mission of the Buffalo Urban League is . . . To empower African Americans, other minorities and disadvantaged individuals to secure economic self-reliance, parity, power and civil rights. This Mission is driven by the National Urban League’s Mission and empowers those who are striving toward the mainstream to achieve economic self-reliance and to enjoy their rights as citizens under the law. Both the Buffalo and National Urban League’s Mission support the following fiveobjectives: Education and Youth Empowerment ensures the education of all children by providing access to early childhood literacy, after-care programs and college scholarships. Economic Empowerment invests in the financial literacy and employability of adults through job training, homeownership and entrepreneurship. Health and Quality of Life Empowerment promotes community wellness through a focus on prevention, including fitness, healthy eating and access to affordable healthcare. Civic Engagement and Leadership Empowerment encourages all people to take an active role to improve quality of life through participation in community service projects and public policy initiatives. Civil Rights and Racial Justice Empowerment guarantees equal participation in all facets of American society through proactive public policies and community-based programs.
