National Association of Black Accountants

The mission of the National Association of Black Accountants (NABA) is to build a supportive community combined with professional development, mentorship and opportunities - ultimately creating long-lasting impact for our communities at large.

Your support directly funds our student programming: covering travel for regional leadership conferences, bringing in executive guest speakers, organizing hands-on workshops and corporate site visits, and providing event resources and meals that foster belonging on campus.

Your gift to the St. Thomas chapter of National Association of Black Accountants is an investment in creating lasting impact for our campus, our local business community, and the next generation of diverse leaders. Thank you!

A Note from Bezawit Leykun '28

"The Opus College of Business offers incredible opportunities, but walking into corporate spaces and business rooms where very few people share your background can still feel isolating. That is why having a NABA chapter here at St. Thomas is so transformative. It gives underrepresented students pursuing business a genuine community where they are seen, supported and challenged to grow. Your gift on Tommie Give Day does more than fund meetings - it opens doors for students who are driven to lead, provides access to entry-level professional careers, and strengthens the St. Thomas community. Your investment will help our members and our chapter grow. Thank you!"
