UNCF has reimagined the Walk, and they are going virtual! Show your support by making a donation, participate individually, form or join a team. Make a difference while practicing social distancing—walk, run, cycle, dance—all in honor of UNCF, our students and schools. Then, join the virtual walk online on Sept. 18 (1 p.m. CDT) and celebrate with UNCF during a nationwide virtual event featuring celebrities, member presidents, students, alumni and others!

The UNCF Virtual Walk for Education is a nationwide initiative to raise the critical funds UNCF needs to fulfill our mission of support to our member HBCUs to help our students to become active participants of society through a high-quality education.
