“My UNCF scholarship completely changed the trajectory of my life! It allowed me to attend my top choice institution. It allowed me to graduate with no debt. Which was the reason I was able to work in college access.”
Your donations mean more than tuition help to UNCF scholars. Your donations mean helping a student overcome difficult circumstances. Your donations mean giving a lift to students and their families when they encounter a financial roadblock. Your donations mean supporting the next generation of leaders in their pursuit of a college education—and their dreams. These are just a few stories about the impact of your donations to UNCF.
“Thank you, UNCF, for investing in my future. I am proof and a testament of your good work and what your contributions to this organization can do, and do, for black students all across the world.”
“I honestly thought that my possibilities in life were very limited. I didn't think I would be a successful African-American young lady. So with this UNCF scholarship, it brought back hope that I can and will be successful with a college education.”
“In life, my mother and I have had a lot of hardships... This scholarship has enabled me as a young woman to continue with my studies at Xavier University. I am endlessly grateful for the scholarship that I have today.”
“This journey through Xavier, it's been a great one because of the donors, because of UNCF, and because of people that believe in the mission and the vision of UNCF. They enabled me to come back here... it was only because of your donations that I'm still here.”
“I think it is absolutely essential to make sure that our HBCUs continue to thrive.”
“If you look down the line, many successful people are graduates of HBCUs. And why not be a part of that long list?”
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.
