Why you should attend
A Night to Remember:
Dressed in black-tie elegance, our guests are in for an unforgettable evening. With entertainment that resonates, gourmet cuisine that delights, and presentations that inspire, the Legacy Ball is an immersive experience. But it doesn’t stop there. This event offers you the opportunity to engage with community partners, make new friends, and further your connection with impactful causes.
A Commitment to Progress:
Central to the Legacy Ball’s purpose is the R.H. Boyd Family Endowment Fund, an entity forged with intent by the late Dr. T. B. Boyd III. Its mission is to support nonprofit organizations, churches, and students while promoting the cultural heritage of African Americans. This purpose also extends to fostering innovation in advanced learning and professional development, ensuring that fields of study such as business, theology, and English literature thrive with diversity.
Empowering the Future:
The Endowment Fund’s impact is realized through its diverse scholarship and grant classifications. From the Boyd Undergraduate Scholarship to the Dr. LaDonna Y. Boyd Annual Scholarship at Spelman College, every avenue contributes to enhancing education and professional advancement. Our past recipients, like Mr. Jalani Patterson and Mrs. Taylor Epps, stand as beacons of achievement, attending esteemed institutions and blazing trails in their respective fields.
