Report: Jay-Z's College Student Scholarship ‘Barely Enough to Cover Books'
2018-12-11
[Breitbart] Individual students only got between $1,000 to $2,500 each, "barely enough to cover books," the paper wrote.

The money reportedly went right to the colleges, not to the students, with $32,000 going to Virginia State University for an undisclosed number of students.

The fund, administered by the singer’s mother, Gloria Carter, took in $742,118 in 2018, most of which came from Jay-Z himself.

The charity claims it tries to help needy students, but it also charges the students $200 each to participate in the program and only 32 students signed up last year.
