One click can strengthen the future of HBCUs. 💻👈🏾👈🏾

We are honored that Dr. Paulette Dillard, president, Shaw University, was on Capitol Hill advocating for the IGNITE HBCU Excellence Act, legislation that would help address critical infrastructure needs at HBCUs.

HBCUs have long transformed lives and communities. The IGNITE Act would help ensure these institutions have the modern facilities and resources needed to continue preparing the next generation of leaders.

Take action today. Visit uncf.org/ignite to send a letter or contact your representatives in support of the IGNITE Act.
