2024 UNCF Masked Ball – New Jersey
This year, UNCF is celebrating its proud 80-year legacy as the largest scholarship provider for students of color. On July 13, 2024, UNCF New Jersey will host its annual Masked Ball and celebrate UNCF’s 80th Anniversary. This anniversary will highlight UNCF’s impact over the last eight decades and our work to transform HBCUs and the students we serve.
As UNCF continues to pave the way for the future, our 80th anniversary theme, Honoring the Legacy, Transforming Our Future, captures the true essence of UNCF’s tremendous success. Ensuring equal access to education and creating opportunities for students who may have otherwise been overlooked, remains at the core of our mission. UNCF initiatives have enabled more than 500,000 students to achieve college degrees from UNCF-affiliated HBCUs, with an annual increase of approximately 8,000 graduates. In the 2022-23 academic year, UNCF distributed $68 million in scholarships to over 11,000 students; in New Jersey 274 scholarships totaling $1.1 million were awarded to 204 New Jersey residents attending member colleges and universities and other schools across the country. These accomplishments underscore the organization’s dedication to fostering educational opportunities.
Our annual Masked Ball is a signature fundraising event in support of students attending UNCF-member colleges and universities and nearly 1,100 other colleges across America. It is a great opportunity to invest in Better Futures. Funds raised will help UNCF ensure that more young people with limited financial resources continue to have a pathway to attend and graduate from college.
