2024 Annual Coco Legacy 5k Walk/Run

Coco proudly offers scholarships to empower and support the development of Black college women in three vital fields: Health, Civic Engagement, and the Arts. These scholarships serve as a tribute to the enduring legacy of the cofounders' parents, whose passion and dedication in these areas were truly inspirational: Angela Heath, Byron Thompson, Lolita Hancock and Dereje Haile. Their tireless efforts to create positive change are the foundation upon which Coco's scholarship program is built. For more information about each scholarship and eligibility requirements please visit our website
