WASHINGTON DC - MAY 13:
Angel C. Dye (center) was able to  receive her undergraduate degree from the College of Arts and Sciences thanks to donors who stepped in to help. Dye celebrates  on the campus of  Howard University  in Washington, DC on May, 13, 2017.
In 2016, Angel Dye was trying to pursue her Howard University education, but like scores of other students at the prominent, financially strapped HBCU, she owed thousands, and had been kicked out of her dorm room and still took classes on the down low. A year later Dye receives her degree today,  with the help of donors who read her story  and is headed to graduate school.
