“Thanks to UNCF I'm able to participate in on-campus research, clincial volunteering, multiple leadership positions, and work as a peer success leader at Tulane.”
“The UNCF has been more than just a source of financial aid. It's been a network of mentors, advocates, and lifelong friends. And through the ambassador program, I've had the chance to lead, serve, and inspire others to pursue higher education and give back to their communities. My journey is proof that with the right support, anything is possible.”
“I have been the recipient of three different UNCF awards. I was able to pay off an entire semester with scholarships, which allowed me to complete my thesis for my art degree... UNCF gave me the financial freedom to not have to think about tuition or worry about overworking myself to finish my degree.”
“A big part of going into college was obviously tuition and finding a college that would work for me, moneywise. UNCF was a big help... they were able to provide funds and help cover some of that cost. It was really impactful, because it helped keep my mind at ease and focus on my studies and my education.”
Since 1944, UNCF has helped nearly half a million HBCU students earn college degrees. Help us help a half million more! Please make a gift today.
