Dear School District Employees:

Atlanta Public Schools is proud to be collaborating with UNCF (United Negro College Fund) as part of its Black History Month Campaign for school year 2023. By choosing to give to UNCF, deserving students will have the opportunity to receive scholarships that will allow them to attend colleges and universities across the country.

Your participation is vital to the future of these students. UNCF has made the dream of attending college a reality for thousands of deserving, economically disadvantaged youth throughout their 78-year history. All of this was made possible by the concern and generosity of people like you. To hear more about this great work, watch a short video.

Charitable giving is a personal decision. You will decide for yourself whether you want to take part in this campaign. Here are some ways a gift to UNCF can supports students:

• $70 helps a student buy general supplies
• $100 helps students buy PPE supplies
• $200 helps buy a laptop
• $400 helps secure a meal plan
• $1,000 helps with room and board
• $2,000 helps with tuition

I ask that you join me in supporting this worthwhile organization and help make our students’ dreams of attending college a reality.

Sincerely,
Dr. Lisa Herring
Superintendent
