Every year the National BBCB Summit brings together college students and seasoned pros for an incredible gathering. At this year's conference, our Founder and CEO, Tanya Van Court, took the stage to give students some wealth-building wisdom. #BBCB #BuildingWealth

Access to high quality, affordable education is paramount for our communities to thrive. Today, I was proud to speak at the 19th annual BBCB summit — an event that left me feeling inspired by the next generation of leaders.

Today, I sang for the BBCB Summit, where community leaders & partners help students see the importance of education. Today's speaker was actor, Blair Underwood, who challenged us to BELIEVE in ourselves first! We met Steadman Graham & spent some fun time w/Ch 10's Frank Wiley.

Award winning actor & philanthropist Blair Underwood sat down with me during his visit to Hills. College’s BBCB Summit

In today’s For the Culture we take a look back at his 4 decades in television & film and the growth he has seen in Hollywood when it comes to representation ✨

[Jane Castor @JaneCastor]

Amazing to be at the National Believe, Build, Complete, Become Summit hosted by Hillsborough College. Programs like this remind us how powerful education and mentorship can be, and that our community grows stronger every time a student uses their education to make a difference.
