ISUBCA Rising
Together, we make a big impact in our community! Because of you, Illinois State University's Black Colleagues Association (ISUBCA) has awarded over $45,000 to 34 students for this academic year!
Your gift to our ISUBCA Rising campaign will help provide more Redbirds with scholarships to overcome obstacles and achieve their dreams. Help us to hit our total goal of $40,000 for this academic year.
ISUBCA comes from humble beginnings and awarded its very first scholarship for $500 in 1987. Since then, ISUBCA has been intentional about providing scholarship support for students, awarding a total of 336 scholarships - worth more than $500,000!
*Remember - to keep an active membership in ISUBCA, make a minimum $50 gift annually to the Black Colleagues Association Fund, and then you may also contribute to the other ISUBCA administered scholarships of your choice.
