Description

This is the first HBCU Annual Signing Day to raise funds for the HBCU Prep Program next year (2023). We are looking for sponsors to fund the luncheon event. Sponsorship would include affording the venue as well as the funds to expand the program for the upcoming year. 

The HBCU Prep Program will provide high school sophomores, juniors, and seniors with the opportunity to converse directly with HBCU recruiters, via video conference or in person, where they will learn specifically what these colleges offer and are looking for in potential students. Furthermore, the program will involve mental health support group counseling to African American students in school districts as well as volunteer opportunities for communities in northern Harris County. Funds from the luncheon will be used to afford SAT and ACT testing and college application fees for indigent high school students and thier families.
