Kevin Hart Surprises 18 Students With College Scholarships

Kevin Hart teamed up with the United Negro College Fund (UNCF) and Knowledge Is Power Program (KIPP) to surprise 18 students with scholarships to complete their college degrees totaling $600,000.

The students were chosen based on academic and personal achievements and “may receive substantive renewable awards based on need,” according to a press release from UNCF, which bills itself as the largest provider of college scholarships for students of color in the US.

 

The comedian/actor posted a photo of himself with the recipients on his Instagram page on Tuesday with a promise. “This is just the beginning people!!!! My “Help From The Hart Charity” is about to do a lot more!!!!!”
