Support EEF's Colleges and Culture Tour in Tennessee!

Transform lives and open doors to higher education!

The Education Equalizer Foundation (EEF) is hosting the Colleges and Culture Tour in Tennessee from March 16 to March 19, 2025, and we need your support to make this extraordinary opportunity possible for 45 ambitious high school students.

About the Tour

This four-day transformative journey will expose students to some of Tennessee's most prestigious colleges and universities, including:

Fisk University
Tennessee State University
Meharry Medical College
Vanderbilt University
LeMoyne-Owen College
University of Memphis
Christian Brothers University

In addition to campus tours, students will experience cultural and historical landmarks like:

The National Civil Rights Museum
Benjamin L. Hooks Central Library
The Tennessee State Capitol Building
The Tennessee State Museum

For many participants, this will be their first time traveling outside of Florida. These students have an average GPA of 3.2, with some achieving ACT scores as high as 25 or more. They are motivated, driven, and deserving of this life-changing experience.

Our Goal: $30,000

The total cost of the tour is approximately $650 per student, including transportation, lodging, meals, and activities. To ensure this opportunity is accessible, families will contribute only $325 per student, while we aim to raise the remaining $325 per student through community support.

How You Can Help:

1. Donate:
Every dollar helps. A $650 donation sponsors one student’s entire trip, but contributions of any amount are deeply appreciated.

2. Sponsor a Student:
Your $325 donation will bridge the gap and enable one student to participate without financial barriers.

3. Share:
Spread the word about this campaign to your network. Together, we can amplify our impact!

The Education Equalizer Foundation is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization (EIN: 87-3688925), and all donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
