Homecoming is not only a time to revisit where we’ve been, but also celebrate how far we’ve come! Historically Black Colleges and Universities have helped to shape and define the future of so many. We gave recent alumni a chance to show their love and appreciation for their alma maters with more HBCU Love Letters. This homecoming season, as we listen to their stories, let’s celebrate the work of HBCUs and the lives they uplift!
Retool Your School
Congratulations To All The Winners!
The 2022 Retool Your School program is in the books, and it was a tremendous success. The almost 10 million votes cast were record breaking. The level of enthusiasm from the 59 participating HBCUs was off the charts. The amount of creativity that went into Retool Your School campaigns inspired and impressed us all.
Everyone who participated is a winner in our eyes for your passion, commitment, and dedication to HBCUs. A special congratulations goes to the 30 HBCUs that took home campus improvement grants during our spectacular Winners’ Announcement Ceremony. We can’t wait to see your project builds soon!

Common Ground
Fisk University. Meharry Medical College. Tennessee State University. Three distinct HBCUs. Three distinct legacies. Three distinct vibes. But these schools all have common ground, a common purpose, and (with their $50,000 Retool Your School grants) a common goal: upgrade their campuses and uplift their shared Nashville community.
