BLACK COLLEGE EXPO SPONSORSHIP FUND!
Purpose:
We would like to take 40 members of the Emerging Leaders Mentorship Program for Black Male Youth to the Black College Expo that is being held at Bowie State University, in Bowie, Maryland on Saturday, March 30, 2013. (Four chaperons will also attend the trip).
The Black College Expo provides the opportunity for the Emerging Leaders to meet with college recruiters from across the country, complete college applications, learn about scholarship opportunities, and enjoy fun activities such as a step show.
20 Sponsorships Needed!
Fundraising Goal = $2,000
Twenty members of the Emerging Leaders Mentorship Program for Black Male Youth (ELMP) simply cannot afford to pay the $100 fee to travel to the Black College Expo. Therefore, we need to raise $2,000 for the ”Black College Expo Sponsorship Fund” to provide sponsorships for 20 members to attend the Black College Expo.
