This spring, Clark Atlanta University students are crossing the commencement stage with the support of the Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation’s $50 million, 10-year HBCU scholarship initiative.
To date, 290 CAU students have received more than $1.45 million in scholarship support through the initiative, helping remove financial barriers that too often stand between students and graduation.
