GIRLS AND BOYS WITH A PUROSE COLLEGE FAIR is a pioneering initiative designed to bridge the information gap between higher education institutions and young students in the Metro Atlanta area. Recognizing the importance of early exposure to college and career possibilities, this initiative brings comprehensive college fairs to counties across the region, targeting middle and high school students. These fairs are more than just informational booths; they are dynamic, interactive events where students can engage directly with representatives from various colleges and universities. The fairs will include workshops on college preparation, financial aid, scholarship opportunities, and career planning. These sessions are aimed at empowering students with the knowledge and resources to make informed decisions about their educational futures. We are pleased to share that 14 colleges have already confirmed their participation, including: Florida A&M University Jackson State University Benedict College Winston-Salem State University Grambling State University Alabama State University Alabama A&M University Kentucky State University Lincoln University PA Johnson C. Smith University Voorhees University Elizabeth City State University Mississippi Valley State University Central State University
