The Pearls of Excellence Foundation is excited to partner with Mu Epsilon Omega to raise money for scholarships for our college bound youth. Please visit the below link for the minimum qualifications, requirements, and deadlines.

Give the gift of college, where your donation will have a direct impact on students’ ability to achieve a higher education. Your generosity is crucial in helping our 501(c)(3) nonprofit support the aspirations of young African American high school students. By helping students pay for college, we are investing in both their future and in the future of our community.
