Congratulations to LLC1 alumnae for winning our recent Homecoming ’19 Dorm Wars Competition! We are pleased to share that in honor of LLC1’s victory, we recently hosted a game night for the current residents! Our students had a blast dancing to music and playing classics like Uno, Connect 4, and card games.
The students were in awe of the $28,383 that LLC1 alumnae donated to the college, and were grateful to celebrate their generosity and commitment to Spelman!
We also received a special surprise from Fenty Beauty, who noticed LLC1 residents’ love for Rihanna as demonstrated by their dorm theme featuring the iconic star and her many business ventures. To show their appreciation, they sent stylish Fenty Beauty fanny packs as a gift to the dorm. Our students absolutely love them and were beyond excited to be recognized by Rihanna’s brand!
We’re so grateful to the alumnae in every single dorm for participating in our Homecoming ‘19 Dorm Wars Campaign and making it beyond successful! Thanks to all of you, we raised over $167,000 dollars from more than 1200 donors! We are truly overwhelmed by the love and support we receive from our alumnae, and are forever grateful for your True Blue spirit.
On Tuesday, Dec. 3, Spelman College joined more than 10,000 charitable organizations in a celebration of giving.
During this season of gratitude, we are especially thankful for our Spelman family! Many thanks for your continued support. Warmest wishes for a joyous holiday season!
