Since 2003, this one-of-a-kind college fair has connected more than 60,000 attendees to academic institutions. As mentioned in Philanthropy News Digest, in 2022, Alfred Street Baptist Church (ASBC) in Alexandria, Virginia, announced a $1 million gift in support of Jackson State University. With this latest gift, ASBC has awarded more than $42 million over the past 20 years to historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) across the country, which it states makes it the largest faith-based financial supporter of HBCUs. ASBC has given a combination of direct donations, contributions, scholarships, and/or waived fees awarded to students from its annual HBCU College Festival. At the Fall 2022 festival, $4 million in scholarships and waived fees were awarded to thousands of students.
