Host a UNCF Day of Worship

UNCF Interfaith and Education Initiative – All Year Round

UNCF and the interfaith community have a long-standing partnership. Churches and other places of worship across the nation have supported Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) in maintaining their commitment to education. In turn, UNCF raises funds nationwide to help students become future ministers and active church members.

Support the UNCF Interfaith and Education Initiative by hosting a day of worship this year! For more information, contact Dana Brown at dana.brown@uncf.org.
