BUILDING BEAUTIFUL FUTURES SCHOLARSHIP

The Building Beautiful Futures Scholarship is powered by Dark & Lovely in partnership with The College Gurl Foundation. This opportunity provides Black female college students scholarships to support their educational endeavors and financial freedom post-graduation. Currently, Black women hold the most student loan debt in America and do not achieve the same level of success as their counterparts. This life changing scholarship opportunity will invest into the success of Black women in higher education to help them develop into the next future leaders of tomorrow.
