It's that time of year again--time to gear up for the 32nd annual UNCF Walk for Education! This important event provides scholarship support to students from low-income families, giving them the opportunity to earn a college degree and to help better our community. Please register your entire family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers. Come be a part of the fun along with thousands of other participants who also believe, "A mind is a terrible thing to waste." Can't attend the UNCF walk in New Orleans? No, worries you can still support by registering as a virtual walker and walk in your hometown. #LaceUp4UNCF #UNCFwalkNOLA
