Rapperย Future donated $25,000 to the program, as did Jeezy, Usher and Tyrese, for a total contribution of $100,000.

โ€œThis must-attend event is full of fun, fashion, glitz and glamour that supports UNCFโ€™s mission of investing in better futures for the young men and women we serve and by helping them move to and through college,โ€ UNCF said about the event.

The entertainers who donated to the organization did so on behalf of their own organizations.ย Future's donation was made on behalf of his Freewishes Foundation, and Usher's New Look Atlanta Leadership Academy also provides a $100,000 UNCF scholarship.
