Willie’s Dream
Lanier hopes building new fields at HBCUs will be his lasting legacy to the game of football and to America’s Black colleges.
FIELDTURF’S CONTRIBUTION
THE WORLD LEADER IN ARTIFICIAL TURF.
Our systems have redefined how football is played on the gridiron. FieldTurf is the top choice for the NFL, powerhouse collegiate programs, and elite high schools across North America. FieldTurf, one of the world’s largest manufacturers and installers of artificial playing surfaces for athletic teams, has partnered with the Honey Bear Project to install or resurface football fields at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). FieldTurf recently installed the new football surface at Virginia Union University’s Hovey Stadium, the second oldest football stadium in the United States behind Harvard Stadium which was completely resurfaced with hybrid turf technology five years ago.
SUPPORT FOR HBCUs IS ESSENTIAL
…for continuing education and cultural inclusion.
Education happens within the context of a larger community. Our approach extends beyond the athletic fields to a deeper community need to help ensure students at HBCUs have the necessary support to do their best learning on campus and in life. Willie Lanier, Buck Buchanan, Doug Williams, Jerry Rice, Walter Payton, Michael Strahan, Sterling Sharpe and David “Deacon” Jones are but a few of football greats who attended Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs)
“With your support, we are better able to serve HBCU students more than ever.”
