The Black History Month collection honors and celebrates Black heritage, in sport and beyond, around the world while also providing financial support to Nike's Ever Higher Fund, which was created to bring mentorship, sport and all of its benefits to African American youth.

Nike is proud to support numerous national and local organizations that provide services to underrepresented youth, including African American youth, during the year, through community development, coaching, city league sport programs, and early childhood development programs. Long-time partners include the Jackie Robinson Foundation, Boys and Girls Clubs, National Head Start and Coach Across America.
