Black Alumnae/i Fund

Established in 2008 and revitalized in 2020, the Black Alumnae/i Fund supports students who share a cultural background or personally identify with the African Diaspora in their personal and professional growth.

Examples of funding might include internships, research funds, or funding for activities such as graduate school entrance exam test preparation. The Fund is administered through the Career & Civic Engagement Center (formerly LILAC).
