Aflac has donated $75,000 to Jackson State University for professional development and for head coach Deion Sanders’ football camp.

With the grateful donation, the insurance company is showing that they are committed to donating to Historically Black Colleges and University.

“Aflac is rooted in caring for people when they need them most, whether through their policies and services or the way they tackle issues that are important to all communities. We share a vision when it comes to supporting HBCUs and, more broadly, communities of color,” Sanders said to the Clarion Ledger. “I like to say that I see myself as standing in the gap between those who need greater support and the institutions that can provide that support.”
