Our Vision

The Raheesa Bush Helping Hand Foundation (RBHH) is a non-profit organization committed to supporting access to and success in higher education for students in underserved communities. Based in East Elmhurst, New York, RBHH offers scholarships to students from New York City who are dedicated to completing a degree at an accredited college or university. RBHH sees higher education as a catalyst for positive change in disadvantaged communities, a power that can make a difference in the lives of individuals and families and advance the economic and public exchanges necessary for societies to function well. A community that truly recognizes the importance of higher education is one that ensures the doors to post-secondary education are open to all who have the potential to succeed, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, background or lack of resources.
