Website Offers Financial Help for Struggling Black College Students
Filed under: Blog Entries, Business, Community, Personal Finance, Relationships, Society & Culture
While attending college, there were a number of times when I needed some financial help and there were people around to look out for me. In my final years I worked two part-time jobs and did what I had to do to pay the bills. FASFA was my best friend and the government was a lot more gracious with the money they were giving out in student loans.
Times have changed and money is tight for everyone (including the government). But an online dating service is stepping up to the plate to lend a hand to those trying to receive their college degree. BlackAlumniLoveConnection.com has a program called Lift and Climb where they give a portion of every monthly subscription to a scholarship fund for African American college students. They plan to distribute $30,000 in scholarships in the next year, with that number growing as their membership grows. In my opinion this is a great way for BlackAlumniLoveConnection.com to get customers for their business and help others in need.
So if you’re single and you’re wanting to get your online mingle on, check them out. You may be able to find love and help a black college student in need at the same time. For more information regarding the Lift and Climb program visit their website at BlackAlumniLoveConnection.com or contact Noelle LeVeaux Dugan at 214.616.1784.

That is great to see. As a single mother I know how hard it is to attend and pay for higher education. Any financial help that someone can get the better. Good for them…
