Yes, we are a Florida nonprofit corporation that has received 501(c)(3) status from the Internal Revenue Service. This means your donations are tax-deductible if you qualify. 

Journey to Esquire’s mission is to create lawyers you lead, mentor, and inspire, one student at a time. We help diverse law students (BIPOC. LGBTQ+, disabled and differently-abled, first-generation, immigrant, among other characteristics) navigate the journey to esquire by providing emotional and financial support. 

Primarily, your donation will go to the JTE Scholarship Fund. We also use some donations for operational costs. Journey to Esquire® programs are entirely volunteer-run, and we pay for our technological services and digital products— like this website!

As our program grows, we also continue to hire part-time and full-time staff to manage accounting and paperwork, lead marketing and promotional efforts, and continue to deliver excellent service to our students and supporters. 

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

The Board of Directors of Diversity Access Pipeline, Inc. runs the program. Check out this page for our current board members. Founder, Joseline J. Hardrick, Esq., is the current Executive Director that runs the Journey to Esquire programs with the help of our awesome volunteers!
