Quality educational experiences are essential to preparing students for the future, yet systemic barriers create pronounced disparities in educational opportunities and outcomes. The Emily Krzyzewski Center, a nonprofit organization in Durham, NC, implements four distinct programs designed to build on the academic, career, and leadership potential of students who are traditionally underrepresented in higher education. Collectively, our programs serve students from elementary school through college and equip them with the skills necessary to successfully complete higher education, connect to promising careers, and become agents of change within their communities. We amplify our efforts through partnerships with our local school district, community-based organizations, and universities.
Support After Surrogacy Loss: You're Not Alone Infant loss during a surrogacy journey is a heartbreaking and unique grief that affects both the surrogate and the intended parents. We are a nonprofit dedicated to providing free resources, emotional support, and community for all families impacted by this kind of loss. We recognize that surrogates often carry a deep sense of guilt and grief, while intended parents face the devastation of losing a child they had longed and planned for in a non traditional way. Our mission is to create a safe space where both sides can share, heal, and be seen—because both sides matter. Together, we can honor this kind of loss and offer a path forward rooted in compassion, connection, and healing.
