SUMMARY:National HBCU Commencement Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, May 16\, 2020 \nEvent: #ShowMeYourWalk: HBCU Edition\, Presented by JP Morgan Chase \n\n \nTime:聽2:00 pm EDT to 4:00 pm EDT \nHow to Join:聽Essence Live Stream\,聽HBCU Connect Facebook \nConfirmed Featured Guests:聽President Barack Obama\, Kevin Hart (Host)\, Thasundra Brown Duckett\, Wyclef Jean\, Mellody Hobson\, Omari Hardwick\, and MANY more! (see microsite for full list) \n聽 \nEvent Description:聽Like most academic institutions across the country\, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) have been forced to cancel or postpone commencement ceremonies due to the COVID-19 outbreak. As a result of this\, JPMorgan Chase is supporting 鈥淪how Me Your Walk HBCU Edition\,鈥� a virtual commencement ceremony on May 16 that will celebrate the achievements of more than 27\,000 HBCU students from 78 schools. JPMorgan Chase is supporting this effort through its Advancing Black Pathways initiative\, which was created to help black communities close historical achievement gaps in three key areas: wealth creation\, educational outcomes and career success to complete their bachelor鈥檚 degree. During the event\, HBCUs will raise funds to support students because research shows they must often overcome significant socioeconomic challenges to complete bachelor鈥檚 degrees. 鈥淪how Me Your Walk HBCU Edition鈥� was conceived by Dr. Michael Sorrell\, President of Paul Quinn College (PQC) and member of the ABP Advisory Council. Additional organizers for the event include Howard University\, The National Association for Equal Opportunity in Higher Education (NAFEO)\, Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF)\, United Negro College Fund (UNCF)\, and the NBA. \nLinks: \nMicrosite:聽https://hbcustudent.chase.com/ \nPress release:聽https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/04/28/2023585/0/en/National-HBCU-Commencement-Celebration-to-Take-Place-on-May-16-2020.html \nEssence Press Release:聽https://www.essence.com/news/national-virtual-hbcu-commencement-celebration-essence-may-16-2020/?fbclid=IwAR26lhQAcPhYFC1lxOo5B6AIIse2tj5rYLBi-Beco1-M4uuVJAx6JHQ5EJQ \n\nSaturday\, May 16\, 2020 \nEvent: #HBCUGradParty with DJ D-Nice\, Powered by MoetHennessyUSA \nTime:聽9:00 pm EDT to 11:00 pm EDT \nHow to Join:聽Instagram Live (@dnice) \nConfirmed Featured Guests:聽Nas\, ASAP Ferg \n聽 \nEvent Description:聽To celebrate those that will miss the milestone of graduation this year\, Hennessy and the聽Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF) are proud to sponsor D-Nice鈥檚 official after-party for the National HBCU Commencement Celebration on May 16th.聽In addition to highlighting graduates and their institutions\, the聽#HBCUGradParty聽will raise funds for participating HBCUs and their students. \nLinks: \nMedia Release:聽https://allhiphop.com/news/nas-a-ap-ferg-to-take-part-in-d-nice-s-virtual-showmeyourwalk-hbcu-grad-party-mFOZoV18BEqXd-9MzQ-t7A \nMedia Mention:聽https://adage.com/article/digital/18-brands-getting-virtual-graduations-and-proms-slew-celebs/2255556 \n\nSunday\, May 17\, 2020 \nEvent: HBCU Cookout\, Powered by Facebook \nTime:聽12:00 pm EDT \nHow to Join:聽Facebook.com/AllDefDigital \nEvent Description:聽The Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF)\, Paul Quinn College\, and the United Negro College Fund (UNCF) will continue the celebration of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) with the 鈥淗BCU Cookout鈥� hosted by All Def and Watch The Yard.
