Travis Scott’s Cactus Jack Foundation Announces $1 Million in Scholarships
Written by SOURCE on May 17, 2022
Travis Scott has announced $1 million in scholarships for 100 students graduating from HBCUs in 2022.
The cash comes from Scott’s Cactus Jack Foundation and the Waymon Webster Scholarship Fund, which is giving $10,000 scholarships to Black seniors facing financial adversity. This is Scott’s second year offering the award, which will be distributed among students at 38 different schools.
“Excellence abounds in every Black household, but too often opportunity does not – and Black students are left behind or counted out,” Scott said in a release. “So that’s what my family and I set out to change. We congratulate all 100 scholarship recipients this year. I know we will see great things from them – and we are already looking forward to increasing our work next year.”
