When #Timbaland speaks, it’s never just about music. In a room filled with 2,000 students, $80,000+ in scholarships, and futures being shaped in real time, he dropped advice that sticks with you long after these highlights. Faith, discipline, purpose, giving back, and believing in the version of yourself nobody else can see yet. Here are some of the most powerful moments from the day. 🫶🏽 Do you have a favorite? #accesscollegefoundation #Timbalandwaycares

Tuesday, we joined @accesscollegefd at the @chartwayarena for their Access College Commitment Day celebration. Every year, Access College Foundations gives thousands of dollars in scholarships to students across Hampton Roads who are continuing their academic journey. While we send our congratulations to all of the students, we would also like to congratulate not one but THREE of our Club members who received scholarships during this phenomenal event. We are truly grateful to have presented a scholarship in partnership with @truist and @timbalandwaycares . This was an unforgettable experience, and we wish every student the best.

2,000 high school seniors. $80,000 awarded in scholarships. One room full of future doctors, artists, leaders, builders, dreamers, and disruptors. College Commitment Day with Access College Foundation was more than an event. It was a reminder that the sky was never the limit. Like @timbaland said…the sky is just the view. Here’s a recap. 🎞 #timbalandwaycares #thetimbalandway #accesscollegefoundation #timbaland #communityfirst
