Students and parents looking for financial aid to help pay for college are rejoicing about the release of a new 67-page book entitled, Get That Money, Honey! Top 101+ Scholarships (and Internships) for African Americans and Other Minority Students (exclusively available at www.ebooksandreports.com). The book complements President Obama’s goal by the year 2020 to increase the number of African American students applying to, persisting in and successfully completing college.

Scholarship programs that are listed within the book include:
