The Arthur M. Blank Foundation just made a historic $50 million donation to Atlanta’s Historically Black Colleges and Universities. The goal? To help close financial gaps for students who are close to graduating but struggling to afford the final stretch.
This donation will provide “gap scholarships” to nearly 10,000 students across Clark Atlanta University, Morehouse College, Morris Brown College, and Spelman College. It’s a powerful investment in the future of Black excellence—and it may change thousands of lives.
Higher education should be about achievement, not financial obstacles. This move helps students cross the finish line.
