We Pledge!
As we celebrate 15 years of sisterhood, we are calling on Tenacious 43 to come together in a powerful and tangible way. Our goal is to establish the Tenacious 43 Endowment Scholarship at Howard University, creating a lasting legacy rooted in scholarship, service, and access.
To reach our $25,000 endowment goal, we are asking each linesister to commit to one of the following pledge options:
$43 per month for 10 months
$430 one-time contribution
Through our collective commitment, linesister contributions will account for $15,000, with the remaining $10,000 raised through external fundraising efforts and events.
This pledge is not about obligation but about opportunity. Together, our unified giving transforms individual contributions into lasting impact, ensuring that future scholars benefit from the strength, tenacity, and love that define our line.
Every pledge matters. Every sister counts. Together, we build legacy.

This gift symbolizes our commitment to investing in the next generation of Bison who will walk the same halls, dream the same dreams, and carry forward the legacy that shaped so many of us. By pouring into Howard students, we honor the rich history of HBCUs as pillars of empowerment, excellence, and opportunity. Our contribution helps future Bison access the scholarships, resources, and support they need to thrive, lead, and uplift the communities they will one day serve.
