Long before the degree, before the title, before the corner office there was a young Tiyale Hayes who knew exactly where he was meant to be: Hampton University. 🦅💙 He had the dream. He had the conviction. What he didn't have were the dollars — until the Boys & Girls Club of Richmond believed in him and awarded him the scholarship that changed everything. Decades later, EVP Tiyale Hayes is doing what real ones do, come back home. Tiyale, your story is proof that when someone invests in a dream, that dream multiplies. Thank you for never forgetting where it started and for making sure the next kid with a big dream and a bold declaration gets their shot too. Thanks for mentoring so man y in our walls and giving us something to believe in. Swipe right to see the full circle moment of Tiyale breathing life into the young minds that sit where he sat when he got his scholarship. We love a full circle moment. We salute you, Tiyale Hayes. 🫡 #HBweCU
