Help us raise money

The 16th Annual Atlanta HBCU Alumni Alliance 5K Run/Walk is officially underway, signaling the launch of the Atlanta Chapter's 2023 annual fundraising event.  We are looking forward to the possibilities of helping deserving students and their families pay for a college education. Atlanta is currently assisting 7 returning students from Georgia. The 5K has returned to Piedmont Park on June 24, 2023.  A virtual option will also be available. 

The students need this support to help them fulfill their goals and dreams. All cost are rising and we want them to have the care and support to continue.  So, I'm asking you to dig down again and give what you can.  We have all needed help from people we knew and those we didn't.  Whatever you feel comfortable as support is appreciated. 

Follow the link and please contribute.  BTW .... WVSU has been the #1 fundraising HBCU chapter (50) in Atlanta for 8 .. that's what I said 8 years.  This is what WVSU pride means. Thanks in advance
