Huntsman Savile Row and Morehouse College Announce New Student Success Scholarship
Morehouse College is partnering with the London and New York-based elite fashion house, and renowned bespoke tailor, Huntsman Savile Row to prepare enterprising business, mathematics, and computer science majors for success in their future careers. Huntsman has contributed a $100,000 gift to Morehouse to establish The Huntsman Savile Row Scholarship.
The scholarship provides financial support to rising Morehouse Men and gives them access to signature professional development opportunities. Each Huntsman Scholar receives a bespoke Huntsman suit to outfit them as they pursue excellence in graduate school and the workplace. In addition, Huntsman Scholars also participate in mentoring activities and coaching sessions with company executives where they are given insights into the luxury fashion and bespoke tailoring industry and discuss the shared ethos of Morehouse and Huntsman—a focus on excellence, integrity, leadership, and service. A-students Dawud Crayton, Yusuf Lewis, Cortney Mays, Hermy Mesidor and Christian Porter are members of the inaugural class of Huntsman Scholars. They are still reaping benefits from the scholarship even after they graduated last May. New Huntsman Scholars will follow in their footsteps.
