2026 MLK Youth Program & Rudolph Gordon College Fair

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Youth Program & Rudolph Gordon College Fair

Congratulations, Award Winner!!!

You have been selected by your school's teachers and administrators to receive the MLK Youth Award. This letter is meant to provide you with some information about the College Fair and Youth Program.

On Saturday, February 7, 2026, the Rudolph Gordon College Fair will start promptly at 10 AM and be held at the Trone Student Center on Furman University's campus. The program is being held in person, but we encourage participants to be vaccinated and observe COVID-19 crisis precautions. We have a sincere desire to keep all of our participants safe.

In case of bad weather, we will not reschedule this event; please check our foundation website (www.gglapa.org) or our foundation website (www.alphagreenville.org) for any program changes.

All recipients must be ready to assemble by 10:20 am., so please be prompt. Even though this event is being held virtually, the attire is dressy casual (Please, no jeans or sneakers). We will still take a picture at the end of the Youth program.

The College Fair will have two sessions, "What you need to know about Financial Aid?" and "What to expect in your First Year of College." Each session will last about 45 minutes. We strongly encourage you to attend the sessions. In addition to the sessions, several college representatives will be available to answer questions throughout the morning. We will record " What You Need to Know about Financial Aid" for further reference.

If absent, we will send your award to your High School Guidance Counselor's Office. Corrections to the awards (misspellings, etc.) can be requested through your school's Guidance Counselor's Office.

Again, congratulations on receiving this award, and I hope to see you at the program and fair.

Sincerely,

Bobby Clark

MLK Youth Program Chair
