Providing Students with Opportunities

The Omega Delta Upsilon Foundation collaborates with The Malcolm Bernard Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) College Fair, a non-profit volunteer organization, to provide students with the opportunity to learn about higher education options. The fair connects high school students and their parents from the Northeastern United States, especially focusing on the Delaware Valley, with admissions representatives from various HBCUs.

  1. Education and Awareness: Inform students, parents, guardians, and counselors about the significance and benefits of attending HBCUs.
  2. Quality Candidates: Offer HBCUs access to a diverse pool of high-quality prospective students.
  3. Supportive Role: Reinforce the essential role of HBCUs in the U.S. educational system and globally.
  4. Enhanced Education: Promote initiatives and services that improve educational opportunities for underserved students.
  5. Scholarship Opportunities: Provide scholarships to deserving individuals to support their educational pursuits.
