Back by popular demand: UNCF An Evening of Stars® Presented by Target

Back by popular demand: UNCF An Evening of Stars® Presented by Target
Posted By: How May I Help You NC on January 24, 2012


If you missed the latest UNCF An Evening of Stars®, we're bringing it back—by popular demand, January 28 and 29, on local stations and BET.

The program is one of the best yet, combining music-industry headliners like Patti LaBelle, Erykah Badu, Anthony Hamilton and Ledisi with star students whose education has been made possible by UNCF, making the program a high-voltage celebration of the best in music and the best in education.

So we've scheduled an encore broadcast: on local stations on Saturday and Sunday, January 28 and 29, at times that will vary by community, and on BET Sunday, January 29 at 11 p.m. EST/PST, CST 10 p.m. Visit www.aneveningofstars.org for the complete TV station listing and more information about the show.



And "Like" UNCF An Evening of Stars® on Facebook and follow us on Twitter.

If you missed it in September, this is your chance. If you saw it then, see it again. Patti LaBelle's powerhouse performance of "When You've Been Blessed"; Estelle's heartfelt rendition of "Break My Heart"; Anthony Hamilton's soul-stirring performance of "Fine Again" and Miguel's eclectic sound on "Sure Thing" bring the audience to its feet. And UNCF student success stories celebrate the power of education -- like the story of the junior who served in Iraq before returning to college, the senior whose undergraduate record won her a coveted slot in Teach For America, and the Florida college graduate who became the youngest person to fly solo around the world -- and make everyone who sees them proud of both the students and the organization.
