Today was South Carolina States homecoming and I had the honor of announcing “The Ford Family Endowed Scholarship Fund” Ford is my mother’s maiden name and my grandmother’s last name. We will be providing scholarships to black women in South Carolina who Major in English, (my mother’s major) Communications, (because I’m a Radio/TV Guy), and for any sister that wants to be a mental health professional. Always remember investing in an HBCU is investing in the future of our people so the next time an HBCU ask for money, open that wallet. It’s a blessing to be a blessing! All Praises Due To God!!! P.S. Speaking of GOD my creator told me to announce that I’m tapped out until February so to all friends and family don’t even consider calling me this holiday season for nothing. Have a blessed day. #wefightdifferent

SC State University responded on its Instagram account, “The impact that The Ford Family Endowed Scholarship Fund will have in the lives of SC State University students is immeasurable. We can not thank @cthagod enough for choosing SC State University to establish this scholarship fund in his mother and grandmother’s honor. African American women from SC majoring in English, Communications or a degree affiliated with mental health awareness will benefit from his gift. Remember SC State University is always your home @cthagod and you can come home often. 🐶❤️💙 #scstate #wearescstate
