RISE 5280 Fall HBCU Tour

RISE 5280 will be taking 25 high school students on a HBCU (Historically Black College and University) Tour Oct 16-21. The HBCU Tour provides cultural and educational experiences that inspire students to examine concerns and personal interests during the college selection process.  It also promotes students to continue their education in institutions of higher learning.

 On each campus, students are given the opportunity to walk through academic, residential, athletic and administrative facilities.  In addition, students can interact and engage with faculty, staff, administrators and students.  The HBCU Tours goal is to ensure every young person who participates walks away with motivation and encouragement to further their education.

Many of the students are high performing and deserving of this trip but unfortunately cannot afford the cost. We have a fundraising goal of 10k to meet before the trip to make this awesome opportunity happen. If you could please donate to our cause that would be simply amazing.
