Partner Spotlight: Jordan Wings
Special thanks to the Jordan brand for providing shoes for our Scholars! At the October Saturday Academy, Scholars who followed all the steps to RSVP for the event were recognized and rewarded with Jordan sneakers
Our partnership with Jordan Wings continues to be one of the most life-changing opportunities available to our Scholars…opening the door to college access, financial support, and pathways to pursue their dreams without the burden of cost. Each year, LINK has the privilege of nominating 10 outstanding seniors to apply for the prestigious Jordan Wings Scholarship, awarded to students who demonstrate perseverance, resilience, leadership, and a relentless commitment to excellence.
The Jordan Wings Scholarship is a gap scholarship that covers remaining college expenses after financial aid—so the Scholar pays $0. This funding is life-changing, ensuring that finances are NEVER the barrier between a student and the future they deserve.
In addition to scholarship access, our partnership with Jordan Wings includes powerful ongoing support for LINK programming. Each year, LINK receives financial support and in-kind merchandise donations.
These investments do more than provide resources—they fuel belief, motivation, and confidence. Jordan Wings incentives encourage attendance, engagement, persistence, and academic effort, while the scholarship creates a pipeline to college success for students who have worked tirelessly to prepare for the next chapter.
Jordan Wings is more than a funder; it is a partner in purpose. Together, we are changing what is possible for Black students with big dreams and limitless potential.
Thanks, Jordan! Your support is invaluable and incredibly appreciated!
