We Advance Community.
For more than 35 years, Urban One has been the leading voice to inspire, inform and entertain Black America. We’ve taken our role seriously and have partnered with our community and others who are vested in the advancement of Black culture. Today, we are the epicenter of Urban America; the America that acknowledges and pays homage to the Black culture that has impacted every fiber of American life.
We are proud to partner with not-for-profit organizations who share our passion and commitment to further promote the health, creativity, well-being and prosperity of Black Americans. Our goal is to make meaningful and lasting impact on the communities we serve through contributions, in-kind support and volunteer resources.
