Giving for scholarships

Each year Dallas ISD supports the United Negro College Fund through a workplace campaign to raise funds for deserving college-bound students. This year’s campaign will kick off with a special virtual event at 4 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 3.

UNCF, the nation’s largest minority education organization, plays a critical role in providing scholarships to more than 60,000 students each year to help them pursue higher education and become productive citizens. The funds raised from the district’s campaign will be awarded as scholarships to seniors of all races in the Dallas ISD who plan to attend a historically black college or university (HBCU) or any other four-year accredited U.S. college or university in the fall of 2022.

The workplace campaign begins February 3 and ends March 31, 2022, and is open to for donations from students, staff, and community members. Students may contribute cash donations through campus fundraising efforts. Staff may give donations in cash or contribute funds electronically through Oracle under Employee Self Service. Staff have the option of choosing a one-time donation or monthly payroll deductions. Monthly deductions will be taken out during a nine-month period starting May 1 through Jan. 31, 2023. Employees and community members may also donate to UNCF directly.

The virtual campaign will kick off from 4-4:45 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 3.
