UNCF is proud to announce that Mayor Van Johnson will host the UNCF Savannah Mayor’s Luncheon on Tuesday May 16, 2023, at Savannah State University’s Student Union. This luncheon will bring together Savannah area business, civic and education leaders to support UNCF’s work to create a college-ready culture that provides students with the support they need to get to and through college.
UNCF seeks to increase educational access for students in our community and increase the educated workforce pipeline in our nation. Each year UNCF provides scholarships to over 10,000 students. During the 2020-21 academic year, UNCF provided seven students who reside in the Savannah, GA area with $24,217 in scholarships, an average award of $3,027 per student.
Together we can help to increase awareness of scholarship opportunities for young people in Savannah.
