Currently, our president and CEO, Dr.
Lomax and UNCF staff are coordinating with school officials to
ensure all Xavier and Dillard students are able to continue their
education, and have committed to help cover the unmet financial
need, which may exist after a student relocates to another UNCF-member
school. Additionally, scholarship support will be available to
currently enrolled students who attend other UNCF schools and have
suffered losses from the hurricane. Monies will be provided to the
UNCF schools for immediate needs of books and room and board. |
