Countdown to Our 20th Anniversary Celebration!

Oct 22, 2009 | Archives, Blog

It’s less than a week away, and we hope to see you there. The Empress of Soul, Ms. Gladys Knight, will be performing, and we will be joined by people from across the nation that support American Indian education.

We hope you will join us to celebrate how far we have come–the American Indian College Fund has provided more than 70,000 scholarships! But we also hope you will join us because we still have a lot to do–more than 25% of American Indians live below the national poverty line, and an education is the proven way to lift entire communities out of poverty.

As we embark on our next 20 years of educating the mind and spirit, we hope you will join us. For ticket and event information, visit our web site.
