Since 2009, our Alumni Scholarship Committee has raised monies by having fundraising and soliciting donations via social media. Our collective efforts have resulted in over $100,000 in scholarships being awarded to over 80 students as well as bringing together thousands of alumni from across the country to the annual fundraising picnic.
The Paul Laurence Dunbar Alumni Scholarship Picnic Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation with a mission to provide scholarships to students. To reconnect our graduates through our very own Alumni Association and to support the further development of our alma mater for a new generation of students.
