Here is some information on the Virtual Walk for Education on Saturday, September 18. The event will feature appearances by Black-ish actress Jenifer Lewis, Physician, author and television host Dr. Ian Smith, Grammy-nominated Rapper and DJ MC Lyte, UNCF student scholars and others. The virtual event provides much-needed support to our member HBCUs and deserving students through scholarship support, giving them the opportunity to earn a college degree and to help better our communities. We hope you all will join us for this wonderful program!
The event will be streamed here https://virtualwalk2021.uncf.org/ at 11:00 CDT.
