What Students say about WFF
"The scholarship I received allowed me to open my eyes to a new world in South Africa--one not too different from my own and facing similar issues that will require the strength of unity to conquer. Thanks to the Williams-Franklin Foundation, I've had the opportunity to look for new solutions in a space that might have been inaccessible to me otherwise."
Adetomiwa Victor Owoseni
Receiving the Williams-Franklin Foundation Scholarship meant the world to me. Not only did I get to stay at my dream school Howard University, doing so helped me realize my inner strength and resilience. Through the generous and ongoing love and support of this foundation, I've become the first in my family to graduate from a 4 year college. The Williams-Franklin Foundation & family are the epitome of "lifting as you climb."
