📣 Parents — this is an opportunity you don’t want to miss! 📣

Exposure matters. Access matters. Seeing what’s possible matters.

The Tri County HBCU Alliance College Tour is giving our students the opportunity to step foot on the campuses of some of the most prestigious HBCUs in the nation — Clark Atlanta University, Morehouse College, Spelman College, and Tuskegee University — all in one powerful weekend.

📅 February 16–17, 2025
🚌 Charter bus transportation provided
💰 $250 per attendee

This isn’t just a trip — it’s an investment in your child’s future. College tours help students:

✔️ Visualize themselves on campus
✔️ Ask real questions about admissions and student life
✔️ Build confidence and motivation
✔️ Begin planning intentionally for college success

If you’ve ever said “I want my child to have more opportunities than I did,” this is one of those moments to act.

👉 Register here:

Spots are limited, so I encourage parents to register early and share this opportunity with other families who could benefit.

Let’s continue opening doors, widening pathways, and preparing our young people for what’s next. 🎓✨

Please share this post to help spread the word.
