In order to continue the progress and strides blacks and women have made in the business world, she says, it's also only appropriate that they give scholarships to promising youth who are studying business at the college of their choice. Sunday, June 24, the League will sponsor a $5 per person cabaret at the Black Velvet Lounge from 6-10 p.m. for the purpose of raising funds for a deserving student. That student, who must be a native of Winston-Salem, must possess high academic performance and demonstrate a financial need, says Cain, and will receive up to $500 a year for his or her education. "I had no idea the organization would even last this long," says Cain. "I've seen them come and go. But I've always been one to stick with something I believed in." Cain is employed as a secretary with the special events division of R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co.
