BATON ROUGE — First Lady Melania Trump is going to the LSU-Alabama football game to advance a $5 million endowment for the university.

Trump will travel to Baton Rouge to advance her Fostering the Future initiative with a special announcement at Louisiana State University. The scholarships are for LSU students who experienced foster care.

During the visit, she will also attend the LSU versus Alabama football game at Tiger Stadium, where the Fostering the Future campaign will activate across campus and on the field.

Louisiana Department of Children and Family Services Secretary Rebecca Harris issued the following statement:
“Every young person deserves the opportunity to build a bright future, and this $5 million investment helps make that possible for students who have experienced foster care. I’m grateful to First Lady Melania Trump and LSU for investing in Louisiana’s children and creating opportunities that can make a lasting difference in their lives. This is what it looks like when we come together to put children first.”
