The Fund has provided first rate educations for many thousands of deserving young people, many of whom required both remedial and financial support Nine out of every ten of the 45,000 students on UNCF campuses require some financial help in order to go to school. In 1984, the UNCF raised $30.7 million, with 35 percent coming from the business community. The Fund has long demonstrated the capacity for saving young minds th at might have been lost to both discrimination and indifference. These minds include Daniel “Chap pie” Jam es, the first black, four- star Air Force General and Ar lington Finley, a Philip Morris inor ganic chemist in Richmond, VA Others on the long list of “Amer ican heroes” who have graduated from the Fund’s 43 predominantly black colleges are Leontyne Price, the opera star, Frank Yerby, the novelist, Sharnia “Tab” Buford, President of New York’s Freedom National Bank, Dr John Hope Franklin, the noted historian and Lionel Richie, the singer/song writer Each of the current mayors of At lanta, Birmingham, New Orleans and Washington, D.C. are also UNCF alumnae. It would seem to be an investment th at’s paying off for all Americans.
