The UNCF Richmond “A Mind Is…”^® Smooth Jazz Concert Gala featuring Nick Colionne, and special guest, Jazmin Ghent is a premier fundraising gala and a major social event that raises public awareness and large corporate and individual donations to support deserving students through UNCF. Hosted by a diverse group of corporate sponsors and local businesses, it involves celebrities, dignitaries, civic leaders, volunteers, public officials, alumni and others who support UNCF’s mission of investing in better futures for us all by getting students to and through college.

Please join UNCF and a host of dignitaries and friends for the 19th anniversary of this Charlotte tradition. The luncheon is a signature fundraising event for UNCF, named in honor of our beloved friend and longtime supporter, the late Dr. Maya Angelou.

This year’s event is virtual, and still the “can’t miss” event of the year!

During the Luncheon, women who are leaders and who have brought positive recognition locally, statewide and nationally will receive the distinguished Maya Angelou Women Who Lead Award.

Named after loyal UNCF supporter, the late Dr. Maya Angelou, the luncheon annually honors women whose footprints positively impact our state and regional community. Proceeds from the luncheon will be used to benefit students in North Carolina and the historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) that educate them.
