From June 17 to June 30, guests in the United States can round-up their order total to the next highest dollar amount on the Chipotle app and Chipotle.com to support TMCF.

TMCF continues to support and champion HBCUs and Predominantly Black Institutions (PBIs) by providing capacity building opportunities, professional development and financial support for students.

“Our mission to provide the future workforce with equitable access to education and resources strengthens communities. We appreciate being Chipotle’s featured partner in its 2024 Round Up for Real Change to further this important work,” said TMCF President and CEO Harry L. Williams.
