Support the Black Alumni Network Scholarship Fund
The beauty of helping students through a scholarship is that your gift will benefit students where they most need help. A scholarship can immediately impact students, giving them a chance, or a second chance, to pursue their education. And the efforts of that gift -- investing in our future leaders -- lasts a lifetime. The Black Alumni Network Scholarship fund was established in October 2019 by the JU Black Alumni Network volunteers.

About the Black Alumni Network Scholarship Fund
The Black Alumni Network Scholarship Fund supports the establishment of an endowed scholarship for Jacksonville University students who identify with the mission of the Black Alumni Network. Since reaching endowment in February of 2021, the Black Alumni Network Scholarship will be awarded to a student at Jacksonville University based on financial need in the Fall of 2022. The scholarship will be distributed to one or multiple students depending on endowment earnings.
