Excited about the launch of Project ACCLAIM, a $10M partnership w/ Adage Capital Management & Elizabeth & Phill Gross. This initiative will cultivate a robust pipeline of Black talent in finance, closing the wealth gap & empowering HBCU students. The future is bright!

The recent news of James Earl Jones’s passing is heartbreaking for all of us. He used his gifted voice to help us launch the UNCF PSA campaign that made ā€˜A mind is a terrible thing to waste’® a global slogan and raised billions of dollars to support HBCU students.

The question, 'Do we still need HBCUs?' is one that UNCF’s new report puts eternally to rest. HBCUs are still needed, & they must be supported. It's up to all of us to raise our voices. Get the facts & be a voice for HBCUs: UNCF.org/HBCUImpactRepo… #UNCF4HBCUs

HBCUs continue to do more with less! Today UNCF released a new report, Transforming Futures: The Economic Engines of HBCUs, that reaffirms what we have always known about the resilience of #HBCUs. uncf.org/news/uncf-unve…

šŸ—³ļø Your vote matters for HBCUs! Despite record enrollment and economic impact, they still lack the resources they need. Our elected leaders decide their future. Make a plan to vote on Nov. 5:Ā UNCF.org/vote4hbcus

When elected leaders talk the talk and walk the walk, progress follows. Maryland Governor Wes Moore is doing just that. I was honored to recognize his commitment to #HBCUs and students at UNCF's inaugural Maryland luncheon. #UNCF80 Governor Wes Moore

Quincy Jones was more than a legendary musician and producer; he was a fierce advocate for education and social justice. His dedication to uplifting young talent and fighting for equitable access to education has shaped generations. As we mourn his loss, we celebrate his legacy,
