Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc., Alpha Rho Sigma chapter in conjunction with the Blue Light Education Fund, will host its inaugural I Am My Brother’s Keeper Scholarship Luncheon at the Prince Conference Center on the campus of Calvin College on Saturday June 10, 2017.

Proceeds from the luncheon will support and aid in addressing financial issues affecting men of color in their pursuit of higher education through the Blue Light Education Fund 501 (c) (3) entity. The Fratenity's goal is to award two $500 academic scholarships to two graduating Greater Grand Rapids area high school males of color who have been admitted to an institution of higher education for the Fall 2017 semester. During the scholarship luncheon, recipients will be recognized and honored for their accomplishments.

As a non-profit organization, they are seeking charitable sponsors to support the scholarships and luncheon costs. Your participation as a community education partner, purchase of luncheon tickets, and patron donation are all ways you can support this event and the students in our community.
