About Us
Brandon Owens Foundation: A Movement for Transformation
Turning Short-Term Setbacks into Long-Term Comebacks
The Brandon Owens Foundation is more than just a nonprofit—we are a movement dedicated to empowering, educating, and elevating individuals who refuse to let circumstances define them. Our foundation was built on the belief that everyone deserves a second chance and the opportunity to rise above hardship.
Through our programs, services, scholarships, and partnerships, we provide the necessary tools to help Forgotten Leaders—those who have been incarcerated, homeless, or struggling to reintegrate into society—and Next Generation Leaders—students and young professionals seeking education, employment, or entrepreneurship.
We know that greatness exists in every individual, and we exist to provide the resources, training, and financial support needed to unlock that potential.
Why the Brandon Owens Foundation Matters:
📌 Over 70% of formerly incarcerated individuals struggle to find stable employment—our programs help them become financially independent.
📌 40% of small businesses fail in the first five years—our business training programs equip entrepreneurs with the knowledge to succeed.
📌 Many minority and low-income entrepreneurs lack access to funding—our Business Pitch Summit and startup programs connect them with real investors.
📌 Educational debt is a leading cause of financial hardship—our scholarships help reduce barriers to education and career growth.
📌 Financial literacy is a key to generational wealth—our TUMOSBG program teaches smart investing and money management.
📌 Second chances work—mentorship and financial support reduce recidivism and increase success rates for those rebuilding their lives.
📌 Entrepreneurship drives economic growth—our programs create sustainable businesses that contribute to job creation and local economies.
📌 A strong support system changes lives—mentorship, education, and financial resources help individuals reach their full potential.
