All are invited to join in UC San Diego’s 18th annual Black History Month Scholarship Brunch. The annual fundraiser, happening Saturday, Feb. 22, will feature a talk by Dr. Julianne Malveaux, an African-American economist, author, commentator and businesswoman.

The event will also include a silent auction, live music performance by The Wildside Band and a Southern-style soul food brunch. All proceeds from the silent auction support undergraduate scholarships, enabling ambitious and motivated students to realize their academic dreams at UC San Diego.

This brunch is part of a month-long series held at UC San Diego in celebration of Black History Month. For a full list of events, visit blackhistorymonth.ucsd.edu. To purchase tickets to the brunch, visit act.ucsd.edu/bhm_scholarshipbrunch.
