The United Negro College Fund continues to support schools who offer opportunities to black students and to provide scholarships to black students. They have raised $1.7 billion in their 50-some years of existence. The Fund has partnerships with Microsoft, AT&T and other corporations, and is supported by well-known blacks such as Spike Lee.

Would you withhold support from this group because they continue to use Negro in their title? I see little purpose in dwelling on the word.
