Support Patience's 2024 Spring HBCU Tour

Hey everyone,

I've got some exciting news—I've been accepted to join the Black Excellence Leadership Academy (BELA) 2024 Historically Black College and University (HBCU) Tour in March 2024! This is an amazing chance for me to dive deeper into the vibrant culture and academic excellence of potential colleges I'm eyeing after I graduate next year.

I could use a bit of financial support for this transformative journey. If you can chip in to help cover my portion of the trip expenses, including the $500 participation fee and incidentals during the week-long tour.

During the BELA tour, I'll be visiting top-notch HBCUs like Clark Atlanta, Morehouse/Spelman, Tuskegee University, Alabama State, Jackson State University, Alcorn University, Louisiana State, Southern University and A&M College, Texas Southern, and Prairie View A&M University, among others. This experience is all about sparking my passion for higher education and broadening my horizons.

BELA's mission is all about empowering students like me. They provide invaluable exposure to college life through these nationwide tours and offer crucial help with things like writing college and scholarship application essays, plus guidance with Financial Aid Applications.

Your support means a lot to me—it'll directly contribute to my trip and my growth as a future leader. Every bit makes a huge difference, and I'm incredibly grateful for any help you can offer.

Thanks for being a part of my village!

Warm regards,

Patience (Pj)
