United Negro College Fund (UNCF) | COVID-19: Our Response

Dear UNCF Friend,

First and foremost, I hope you and your family are well. COVID-19 is impacting our country in an unprecedented way, and the safety and well-being of our employees, our member institutions and the students we serve is UNCF’s top priority.

UNCF offices are currently physically closed, with employees teleworking until it is safe to return to work; we will reassess that status based on federal government guidelines. Further, we have also postponed our upcoming local fundraising events for the remainder of the month and next as public health and safety must take priority right now.

For 76 years, UNCF has helped more than half a million students graduate from college, and UNCF is rapidly preparing to help address the critical emergency needs of our students and HBCUs (historically black colleges and universities).
