Tom Joyner Offers Rachel Jeantel Full College Scholarship
Radio personality Tom Joyner has offered Rachel Jeantel a full scholarship to the HBCU of her choosing.
Jeantel was the last person to speak with Trayvon Martin before his fatal confrontation with George Zimmerman. Her brave testimony was heavily scrutinized by the public.
From scholarship will reportedly be funded by the Tom Joyner Foundation.
He said to her: “If you want to graduate from high school, and go to an HBCU, even if it’s not in Florida but especially Florida,like Florida Memorial, Edward Waters or FAMU, if you want to do that, I want to help you do that. I will help you get tutors to get you out of high school, tutors to help you pass the SAT and I will give you a full ride scholarship to any HBCU you’d like.”
