Thurgood Marshall Scholarship Gives Two Students Free Rides

Comments (0)

Last night, Attorney General Eric H. Holder and actor Blair Underwood were among those honored at the 11th Annual Thurgood Marshall College Fund Awards held at the Galleria in Washington, DC. The event, held during the Congressional Black Caucus' Legislative Week, awarded Naeshaun Briggs and Jarvis Jones full rides to Howard University.

Sponsor Hennessy presented a $66,000 check in the name of the Henessy 44 Future Leaders Scholarship, which was funded by proceeds from the Hennessy 44 Limited Edition bottle, celebrating the historic inauguration of our 44th President. Eva Marcille of America's Next Top Model presented an award and Sheryl Underwood (no relation to Blair) was on hand for the positive festivities as well.

I guess Hennessy is not always the culprit for bad behavior!
