THE THELMA SANDERS SCHOLARSHIP DANCE – VIRTUAL – 2021

Featuring Comedian, Merc B. Williams

THE ANNUAL THELMA SANDERS SCHOLARSHIP DANCE 
is held each year on the day after Christmas… December 26th. 

Last year was a success and we were able to make a significant donation to Tougaloo and award each student who applied for the book stipend.  The DrawDown was split between 5 winners. 
We are grateful to everyone who made our event a success!!!

Let’s make this year even better!

MORE ABOUT THE THELMA SANDERS SCHOLARSHIP DANCE (TSSD)

For over half a century, the Jackson Tougaloo Alumni Chapter (JTAC) has sponsored the Thelma Sanders Scholarship Dance (TSSD).
For many years the dance was considered the “social event” of the holiday season. The dance provided an opportunity for alumni, friends, family and those who returned to Jackson for the holidays to gather and reconnect with old acquaintances while supporting a worthy cause.

Traditionally held during the Christmas season, the dance was the brainchild of the late Thelma Sander, a prominent Jackson business woman and civic leader who graduated from Tougaloo College in 1946
