A powerful evening of mentorship, opportunity, and community! 🎓✨

The The University Club of Washington, DC hosted the third and final session of University Bound, a workshop series designed to expose College Bound seniors to a wide range of career professionals and pathways to success.

We were honored to welcome CB alumni panelists Eboni Ellis and Jaron Hickman, who shared their experiences and insights with our students.

The evening also included the presentation of three $1,500 scholarships to outstanding CB seniors Bryan, Javon, and Raina. 👏

This decades-long partnership is a true testament to the power of COMMUNITY. Special thanks to the University Club and the Community Affairs Committee for continuing to invest in the next generation.

Our students had an incredible opportunity to visit the Supreme Court of the United States yesterday! ⚖️

From learning about the judicial system to exploring one of the nation’s most important institutions, the experience was both inspiring and educational. We are proud to continue exposing our students to opportunities that broaden their knowledge, leadership, and future aspirations.
