About The Marcus Graham Project
Founded in 2007 by Lincoln Stephens and Larry Yarrell, The Marcus Graham Project (MGP) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering the next generation of aspiring professionals from diverse backgrounds. Through innovative programs, mentorship, and real-world experiences, MGP provides experiences necessary to solidify careers within the marketing and media industry—including advertising, PR, and social media.
MGP’s objective is to connect and collaborate with the talent development ecosystem — including higher education, corporations, agencies, trade, and the media community — to create a long-term solution to the lack of diverse talent within the industry — especially in leadership roles. Once industry representation mirrors that of the public, marketers will paint more insightful and accurate pictures of these audiences.
