How Can I Support the Black College Fund?

By encouraging your local church to pay 100% of its Black College Fund apportionment, you are supporting the BCF and the United Methodist-related historically Black colleges and universities. You can also make a direct donation to any of the 11 Black colleges supported by the BCF. Those colleges and universities and their Web sites are listed here. To learn more about the fund, visit the UMC Giving site for the Black College Fund.
