The pair will kick off their collaboration with the “Celebrities with a Purpose” campaign, with Sheryl serving as Chairperson. The campaign is designed to form collaborations with other celebrities to support various charitable events, including the Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage, the Tom Joyner Foundation’s largest fundraiser that provides scholarships to HBCU students.

“I am happy that Sheryl accepted my offer to be the 2021 Chairperson, because she knows the value of having a good education. With her passion and historical successes, I know she will help the Foundation not just reach its scholarship goals for 2021/2022, but into the future as well,” said Tom Joyner.
