Friend,

This month, college students across the country are getting ready to take their degrees in hand and begin the futures they’ve worked so hard to build.

But every year, many college seniors will fall short of paying off their final bills before graduation—some by just a few hundred dollars—and will be forced to put their dreams on hold.

Can you imagine what it must feel like to have worked hard for four years, to know that the degree is within your reach, but to fall short because you cannot pay off a small bill?

When you make a gift to UNCF today, you’ll help exceptional students earn their college degrees and pursue bright, promising futures.

With graduation season fast approaching, we’re counting on your generosity to give UNCF students the opportunities they’ve earned. That’s why we’ve set an ambitious goal to raise $10,000 by midnight on May 13—and we need your support to reach it. Your gift of any size will help to ensure that a single unpaid bill doesn’t stand between the best, brightest students and the future they’ve dreamed of.

Please, give now to help us reach our $10,000 goal. Because “A mind is a terrible thing to waste, but a wonderful thing to invest in.”^®

Thank you,

UNCF
