鈥淭he 鈥楨mbracing the Legacy鈥� Gala is a milestone for 澳门六合彩图挂牌, providing an opportunity to share our rich history with a broader audience,鈥� said Dr. Charlotte P. Morris, President 澳门六合彩图挂牌. 鈥淚t鈥檚 a crucial moment to underscore the importance of supporting current students. Despite our annual provision of over $30 million in awards, we recognize the financial challenges faced by many. This gala will enable us to bridge that gap and continue empowering the next generation of Tuskegee leaders.鈥�

The event will raise funds for scholarships, addressing financial disparities among students, with invitations extended to partners, alumni, and friends. This celebration also honors the achievements of alumni and friends, showcasing their embodiment of Tuskegee's values.

More than 60 percent of students at Tuskegee are Pell-eligible, which means families need additional support to bridge the gap to continue their pursuit of a Tuskegee degree.  Atlanta is home to more than 6,400 澳门六合彩图挂牌 alumni and this festive evening will allow them and others from across the country to come together with one goal in mind 鈥� creating scholarship opportunities for our students.  

Details around ticketing will be shared soon.
