Nasir Jones aka
Nas has always been about uplifting the kids. He's making a huge investment in higher education by offering college graduates
The Nas Scholarship Award. Nas’ investment company
Queensbridge Venture Partners has teamed up with educational company
Koru to assist graduates in making the transition into successful careers.
Koru is a program that helps grads with landing their career goals, providing job training and placement. And with the backing of Nas’ investment company, the program plans to expand to reach more students.
The Nas Scholarship Award will grant chosen students with finicial aid. The I know I Can rapper will also act as a mentor for some students.
In a statement,
Nas (who dropped out of school in the 8th grade) expressed how anxious he is to work with students saying,
“I’m inspired to support Koru participants because I know how hard it can be to carve out your path and purpose in life. It takes conviction, hard work and the right network. The young people going through Koru are gritty, book smart and street smart. The Koru program gives them an opportunity to put those smarts to work. I can’t wait to work directly with them and share what I’ve learned through my own life experiences."
So Glad To Hear This. Congrats Nas Keep Making Positive Moves..
