ABOUT UNCF
The United Negro College Fund (UNCF), the nation's largest and most effective minority education organization, has been an engine of minority educational achievement for more than 70 years.

In addition, UNCF ensures that its member institutions remain respected models of best practices in moving students to and through college. Since its inception in 1944, UNCF has raised over $4.5 billion in private support, distributed more scholarships to help minorities attend school than any entity outside of the federal government, and enabled more than 425,000 minority and low-income students to graduate from UNCF's member historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) and launch professional careers.
