100 Black Men of Austin Partners with Huston-Tillotson’s IDEAL Summer Bridge Program

The 100 Black Men of Austin has been working behind the scenes the past few months for the upcoming academic year. We’re preparing for our voter education PSAs as well as supporting our Collegiate 100 at Huston-Tillotson University.

This past Saturday, we had the honor to work with our Collegiate 100 board members supporting incoming HT students at the IDEAL Summer Bridge program. We hosted 80 students at Harvey Pennick Golf course to educate students on the importance of starting off the school year on the right path by aiming for a 3.0 – 4.0 GPA, understanding the importance of networking, preparing their resumes and headshots, researching companies to prepare for internships, understanding financial freedom, and emphasizing all of the above starts now.
