UNCF was founded on April 25, 1944 and for 75 years, it has supported private HBCUs and hundreds of thousands of deserving students, and advocated for minority higher education. As it marks this incredible milestone, UNCF will celebrate all year long at its fundraising events across the country.  Visit UNCF.org/75th for details of our celebration, including a national day of giving.
