The HHIGH Society is fundraising for its HHigher Education Scholarship, an initiative supporting high school seniors who have a passion for education and a desire to become educators. Their goal is to help address the underrepresentation of African American male teachers in the education system and provide opportunities for young men to make a positive impact in their communities through education.
To be eligible, students must be African American males graduating from a Dekalb County high school, have a minimum GPA of 2.5, and submit a 2-page essay and video on the importance of education and their plans to impact communities as an educator. The High Society would like to award at least 2-3 students a scholarship towards the school of their choice.
