YardUnion
HBCU Community Platform
The Problem
HBCU students lack a dedicated digital platform for campus engagement. General social platforms do not serve the unique needs of HBCU communities, from campus voting and events to career networking and school pride.
The Solution
A purpose-built community platform for HBCU students featuring campus voting, student connections, waitlist systems, ambassador programs, career pathways, and an interactive school heatmap showing campus activity.
