UNCF Awards $15,000 to Oakwood University's School of Business to Support New Entrepreneurial Center

Posted By: Reginald Culpepper on June 27, 2018

Oakwood University has been selected to earn $15,000 to advance faculty-led programming that is centered on principled entrepreneurship, innovation, and the economic way of thinking with a UNCF/Koch Scholars Program (UKSP) Institutional Grant. We strongly believe that the funding allocated will provide the support needed to develop principled leaders and social/business enterprises within our local community and across Oakwood University. The grant award period will begin September 1, 2018 and end August 30, 2019.
