Lance Gross Team Up with TBS to Help HBCU Students ‘Cash Out’ / WATCH

*$25,000 to pay off student loans may sound like a dream right now — Lance Gross, Keshia Knight Pulliam and TBS are partnering to make this dream a reality for three lucky alumni of Historically Black Colleges and Universities with the “HBCU Cash Out Contest

For both actors, they’re HBCU graduates, this initiative is vital.  Pulliam graduated from the illustrious Spelman College and Gross attended Howard University, sharing the same alma mater as Vice President Kamala Harris.

“I think I made the greatest decision of my life going to an HBCU. If I had to do it all over again, I would do it the exact same way. For me I feel Like HBCU’S are different from a PWI, it’s an extension of the village,” said Gross, the Tyler Perry House of Payne Star.
