When success comes your way, it’s your duty to give back. Wale knows this, and recently awarded a student from Virginia’s Hampton University a $25,000 scholarship.
According to TheJasmineBrand.com, sophomore student Lauren Pryor won the Wale “The Gifted” Scholarship by calling into Norfolk, Virginia hip-hop station 103 JAMZ.
“I was on my way to a friend’s home in Hampton when I heard the radio challenge that the 25h caller would win the prize,” Pryor told the Gloucester-Mathews Gazette-Journal. “The station said to call between 4 and 5 pm. I called four or five times. The line was always busy. On about the 14th call I told myself to give it a rest then, I heard a man say, ‘Hello.’ I didn’t believe it. He told me there were millions of calls and he only picked up the phone 14 times nationwide.”
Wale attended Robert Morris College and Virginia State University on football scholarships, before transferring to a third school, Bowie State, prior to his rap career.
The rapper presented Pryor with the scholarship at the album release party and concert for his new album, The Gifted, recently.
“Winning this scholarship was truly a blessing,” Pryor says. “Almost not returning to Hampton University in the fall because of expenses, I was exceedingly fortunate to receive this scholarship. It was truly a test of faith.”
