“My support of UNCF revolves around Hyatt’s brand purpose of care and my personal commitment to the advancement of our local communities. As a graduate of Winston-Salem State University, I am personally vested in the work of UNCF, which affords so many students the opportunity to gain an education, and supports the critical sustainability of HBCU institutions.
