Today, the Seattle University Black Student Union (BSU) Scholarship Endowment has received over 160 gifts and unlocked an additional $5,000 pledged by generous donors! Thank you to everyone who has supported the BSU Scholarship so far.

The BSU Scholarship Endowment is the first student-led, Black-serving scholarship at Seattle University, intended to empower Black and African-American students to seize the learning experience while facing fewer financial concerns.

More gifts are still needed to help BSU reach their goal of $200,000 by March 1st, which will help more than 20 students receive scholarships in the spring quarter - https://bit.ly/2NDJJUk

Every alumni gift will also support Our Moment for Mission, the university's race to connect 10,000 alumni back to the university.
