Black Executive Exchange Program
UPS is the largest corporate sponsor of the National Urban League's Black Executive Exchange Program (BEEP), which provides African-American college students with perspectives about the world of business, broadens their career aspirations and presents positive role models from which the students may pattern themselves. BEEP seeks to build links between industry, government and Historically Black Colleges and Universities by harnessing the collective efforts of high-ranking African American executives and professionals who serve as teachers, mentors and role models to the youth in these institutions.
How does UPS support BEEP?
UPS's dedication to the League and BEEP reflects our ongoing support of organizations and programs that show a clear impact on the resolution of social problems. Here are just a few of the ways that we support this career-building program:
- Funding and volunteering, serving as mentors and tutors.
- Supporting the League's Incentive to Excel and Succeed program, which seeks to change young lives by encouraging African American achievement.
- Participating in career exploration and "job shadowing" programs.
