HISTORY OF THE IMANI FUND:
In 2012, a group of Goucher College African American alumnae came together to collaborate
and initiate an endowed fund to support Goucher students. The Imani Fund was created
to encourage exploration and cross-cultural understanding through supporting the study
abroad experience of selected students in the Maryland Scholars Program. The Imani
Fund helps cover costs associated with this formative experience. In 2017, the Imani
Fund was endowed. Through the generosity and support of alumnae/i, faculty, staff
and friends, Goucher students can experience study abroad with less financial concern.
