Education by Jeroslyn JoVonn Morris Brown College Secures $810K In Funding From Government Grant, AME Church, and Rapper T.I.
Morris Brown College secured $810,000 in funding from a government grant, the Sixth District of the AME Church, and rapper T.I.
The state of Georgia is backing Morris Brown College with more than $800,000 in funding to preserve the century-old HBCU’s legacy in Atlanta.
The funding comes after Morris Brown, along with nearby HBCUs like Spelman, Morehouse, and Clark Atlanta, faced threats last year.
“This $700,000 for Morris Brown College reflects a simple truth: Our students deserve to feel safe where they learn,” said Rep. Williams.
