2025 UNCF Mayor’s Breakfast – Northwest Indiana
Summary
UNCF seeks your sponsorship support for the 2025 Northwest Indiana Mayor’s Breakfast.
Net proceeds from this fundraising event will support UNCF’s education mission and help break the financial barriers that prevent so many talented students from earning a college degree.
Our request is in line with your company’s commitment to increasing educational opportunities for minority students in our community. UNCF-member colleges graduate more of their African American students than other private colleges or public universities and their low tuition rates are less than half those charged by other private colleges.
Because college graduates earn higher incomes than non-graduates, your sponsorship will be an investment in the future teachers, business leaders, engineers, physicians, and other professionals who will graduate from UNCF-member colleges to become productive participants in their communities and in the U.S. economy.
Event Background
The Northwest Indiana Mayor’s Breakfast is hosted by the UNCF Northwest Indiana Leadership Council. Since 2007, UNCF’s Northwest Indiana Leadership Council has awarded over 75 scholarships and raised over $250,000 in funding to get students to and through college. The Northwest Indiana Scholarship Program’s immediate aim is to identify and reward outstanding area students that are seeking higher education and meaningful careers but need financial support to begin and sustain their educational journeys. This is the fourth annual Northwest Indiana Mayor’s Breakfast benefiting UNCF. The breakfast will feature greetings from the Honorable Mayor Eddie Melton, who is dedicated to working to diversify the workforce and promote education equality. Mayor Melton is committed to helping support UNCF and its mission of getting students to and through college.
