“Making a Mark, Building Momentum”

#10YearsOfImpact Campaign (2017-2027)

Make Your Pledge
One Time Gift | Honor your pledge

The A.L. Harper Foundation was formed on January 13, 2017. Since then, we have had the pleasure of investing in the education of students attending Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) in an effort to help reduce the amount of debt they graduate with.

With tuition costs rising and HBCU students historically borrowing student loans at higher rates, our work has become increasingly essential.

  • Campaign Goal: To consistently provide scholarships and other awards to students attending Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs)

  • Fundraiser Goal: $100,000 by December 31, 2026

  • Ways to support: take the pledge (form) and donate over time or give a one time gift.

All donors will be celebrated at our Salute to Supporters social hour Wednesday, January 13, 2027 with special recognition to donors who give $500 or more. This event will be free and open to the public.

We have three opportunities available for your support:

  • Traditional Awards - open to any HBCU student that meets our scholarship criteria.

  • High School Award - open to high school students who are enrolled at an HBCU for the Fall Semester of their graduation year.

  • The Academy of Goal Achievers Partnership - The A.L. Harper Foundation will provide an award to a High School Student participating in their program and is enrolled in an HBCU - awardee will be selected by the staff at TAOGA.


    Thank you for helping us keep HBCUs strong!
