FanDuel Continues HBCU Support with Donation to North Carolina Students

FanDuel announced a fourth donation to the United Negro College Fund (UNCF), supporting students at 11 historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) across North Carolina.

FanDuel presented the donation during a ceremony at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte on September 29, joined by UNCF and FanDuel executives.

The funds will help students through UNCF’s Emergency Student Aid program, providing support for technology, housing, food security, tuition, and other education-related expenses.

“As a supporter of UNCF and HBCU students, FanDuel is setting an exemplary standard for other private entities to emulate in making investments in deserving students who need a helping hand to fulfill their goal of completing their college education,” said Larry A. Griffith, Executive Vice President for Programs and Student Services at UNCF.

The donation benefits students attending Barber-Scotia College, Bennett College, Elizabeth City State University, Fayetteville State University, Johnson C. Smith University, Livingstone College, North Carolina A&T State University, North Carolina Central University, St. Augustine's University, Shaw University, and Winston-Salem State University.

“FanDuel is steadfast in its commitment to making a positive impact in the communities in which we operate our sportsbook, and we look forward to supporting hard-working students at institutions throughout the state,” said Alison Kutler, Vice President, Responsible Gaming and Community Impact at FanDuel.
