Each year during this event, students attending a Historically Black College or University receive a scholarship to assist with the cost of college. Many of these students are the first in their families to go to college. With the help of sponsors, IMARA Woman's Magazine has donated more than $65,000 in scholarships since the start of its scholarship program. This year, Westinghouse sponsored a $1,000 scholarship to Ms. Karringtin Daughtry, who attends Allen University, Columbia, SC. Karringtin is majoring in Biology, and her goal is to pursue a nursing or healthcare management career.

Westinghouse is proud to be a part of Karringtin's college journey.

"Sponsors like Westinghouse help to make this possible."- Wendy C. Brawley, Publisher & CEO IMARA Communications Group, Inc.
