Washington, D.C. – As we approach the much-anticipated College Signing Day on April 30, 2024, at the iconic Capital One Arena, the DC College Access Program (DC CAP) wishes to express profound gratitude to all sponsors whose unwavering support has been pivotal in making this event a reality. This year, we celebrate a significant milestone—the 25th anniversary of DC CAP, along with the achievements of countless students from Washington D.C. and the broader DMV area.

A Community Effort

A special acknowledgment goes to Ted Leonsis and Monumental Sports & Entertainment. Ted is not only the chairman of DC CAP but also the founder and CEO of Monumental Sports, our leading sponsor. They will host our College Signing Day ceremony at their marquee venue, Capital One Arena. Their contributions have been crucial in orchestrating the day’s events, ensuring a memorable experience for all attendees.

We are immensely grateful for the generous support from our other key partners. Capital One, Sallie Mae, KPMG, and Amazon have provided critical contributions that enrich this event, enabling us to celebrate and support our students’ educational journeys. Their commitment is instrumental in making College Signing Day a success, reflecting our shared dedication to empowering the future leaders of our community.

Our gratitude extends deeply to a host of sponsors whose contributions have been pivotal. Ernst & Young, Bob Hisaoka, Russell & Norma Ramsey Foundation, Verizon, Gates Foundation, Intuit, Graham Holdings, Tom & Stephanie Conaghan, Consortium Universities of the Washington Metropolitan Area, City Bridge Foundation, Pearson, College Board, and Flamboyan Foundation have all played crucial roles through their support, creating a supportive and celebratory environment for our students.

A Message from Our Leadership

“This event symbolizes the collective effort and commitment of numerous stakeholders within our community. The support from our sponsors not only makes College Signing Day possible but also intensifies our ongoing efforts to ensure every student has access to education past high-school,” noted Eric Waldo, President and CEO of DC CAP.

“The investment our partners are making to celebrate the academic achievement of DC students is invaluable for them and their families. It’s days like College Signing Day which uplift and inspire this generation and the next to achieve more than the generation behind them. It’s been my honor to serve as Chair of DC CAP and contribute alongside these amazing partners who believe as strongly as I do in the power of education to change lives, change families and change communities.” added Ted Leonsis, Founder, Chairman, Managing Partner, and Chief
Executive Officer of Monumental Sports & Entertainment.
