Executive Leadership Council Donates $1 Million to NMAAHC
“It is fitting that we devote some of our resources to support an institution that documents and displays the full African American experience, from slavery to the C-Suites and Board Rooms of America. We are proud to support this exceptional tribute to our past, present and future as African Americans.
“In its 30th year, The ELC is also awarding the largest number of scholarships the organization has ever given in a calendar year to black students attending the nation’s top colleges and universities. The mission of The ELC’s Scholarship Programs is to build a pipeline of black corporate talent by supporting the academic achievement and development of black undergraduate and graduate students.
The NMAAHC is scheduled to open to the public on September 24 and will be a place where visitors from all over the world will learn about the richness and diversity of the African American experience, what it means to their lives and how black people have influenced and strengthened the United States of America.
