About Us
So Why Did We CHOOSE to Become Involved with HBCU kidz, Inc.?
" We must help kids believe at an early age that if you want to look cool, you have to be SMART!" Elias Zenkich
"My friends, family and I had never heard of HBCU until Joan explained it in 2005. If I had known about HBCUs I probably would have advised
my daughter to go to an HBCU. It is so important that people know about these universities because they were designed for us as black
people and without the HBCUs we would not have so many of the black doctors, lawyers etc that we have today. So my goal is to educate the
new parents about HBCU, and I am hoping by year 2028… ALL, I mean ALL black high school graduates will know about and have the choice
of attending an HBCU!" Maggie Joachim
"People have asked me, 'what is your purpose for this company?' My response is throughout my career I have had the opportunity to work with
kids who society had given up on going to college…including themselves…I want to give kids a better opportunity. I want them to have a plan
so that at the end it can come down to choice. Do they choose to go to college or not? Right now college doesn’t happen for so many
because it just was not in the long term plan." Thomas Gosier
"When I am asked why am I involved with HBCU kidz my response is to be able to create a place where a person can work hard while have
time to enjoy family, friends and promote a positive outlook on life! I want HBCU kidz to offer tools to make it easier for gift givers to inspire
and motivate others while they are still young! I want to make the idea of preparing our babies for the future a fun, convenient and popular
thing to do! Every baby deserves a special gift that inspires a dream to achieve." Joan Gosier

- Here at HBCU kidz, Inc. WE passionately believe our kids are our future. We also believe that
education is important gear for life. Just like a football player wears a helmet, a surgeon
wears a mask, a judge wears a robe, or even as a carpenter carries a hammer, every baby
needs to be dressed for success at home. Success begins at birth and every baby born is a
gift from God. We want U to help connect the kids to the colleges.
- We believe that HBCU kidz, Inc. is positioned to be responsive to the voiced needs of the
under served, quality-driven, Internet savvy, HBCU village community. The HBCU village
community encompasses alumni, mentors, students, parents, grandparents, educators,
daycare providers, friends, colleagues and even supportive co-workers!
- Our niche customers care about our future generation and are willing to DO something for
them. Our niche customer is not a big talker about problems...He or she is a DOER.
- The HBCU kidz Inc. niche customer says, “I care about our future legacy, I love our children
and I believe that education is important GEAR for LIFE.”
- Our niche customers believe education is important. They recognize when there is a need to
train up a child. They love their heritage. They set high standards for themselves and for the
ones they love. They know that without a vision a people will perish.
Education! Important GEAR for LIFE. TM
