Giving Legacies: Year Up's Black Opportunity Alliance: A Conversation with Greg Walton Own Your Future

As Black Philanthropy Month begins, Year Up’s Black Opportunity Alliance is proud to recognize the contributions of giving in all its forms, as we educate ourselves and spread awareness about the deep legacy and wide impact of Black philanthropy across the United States. 

To start things off, we sat down with Greg Walton Year Up Board Vice Chair and Black Opportunity Alliance Ambassador, to discuss the work of the Alliance.
Greg, a Boston native and IT Support Engineer at MIT, is committed to closing the Opportunity Divide through his active involvement in Year Up, a non-profit for which he became the first alumnus to join the National Board. He co-founded the Year Up National Alumni Summit, mentors numerous alumni, and holds the unique honor of being the first inductee into both the Year Up and Year Up Alumni Hall of Fame. An MIT Excellence Award recipient and a motivational speaker, Greg is unwaveringly passionate about empowering youth and advocating for community service.
