GAINESVILLE, FL. (EEF News) – The Education Equalizer Foundation is honored to host its inaugural Million Dollar Scholar Brunch in partnership with Greater Bethel AME Church and Integrity Orchid Consulting to celebrate the achievements of The Education Equalizer Foundation scholars, educators, and non-profit leaders!
This inaugural event will honor the students who have earned dozens of college acceptances. Our scholars have been accepted to Princeton University, Tennessee State University, Bethune Cookman University, and many more. “We are working together to help them earn thousands of dollars in scholarships; as our organization continues to grow, we know we will grant millions,” said Dr. Kandra Albury, Board Chairman. It’s a day to witness the excellence of young adults as they begin their journey to college.
We will also honor education and non-profit leaders who have mentored Education Equalizer students and any students throughout Alachua county. Please nominate an EEF Educator of the Year and EEF Non-Profit Leader of the Year.
