There are some names that you just can’t get out of your head. For the Texas Southern University community, Michael Strahan is one of those names. We’re so proud of his accomplishments on the football field and in the media, and this year we have a new reason to be proud: his induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.  

When he is inducted during the ceremony on August 2, 2014 in Canton, Ohio, he will be shining a great light on the University that was instrumental in helping him get to where he is today. So many current and prospective students look to him as a role model for what it means to achieve success in their careers and lives.

The Texas Southern University marching band, the Ocean of Soul, has been invited to participate in the prestigious Enshrinement Festival. What a fantastic way for our community to show Michael how proud we are of him!

But we can’t get our students there without your help. We need support from the entire community to help cover the costs of transportation and housing for the band, plus shipping for their instruments. Please consider a gift to get the band to Canton to honor Michael and show off Texas pride!

On behalf of Texas Southern University and our students, I thank you for your support. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.

He has been both a Texas Southern Tiger and a New York Giant. He has announced for FOX Sports and greeted the nation in the morning on Kelly and Michael.  And just recently he joined the cast of Good Morning America. To the world he is Michael Strahan. To us he is family.

In everything he does, Michael Strahan supports TSU. This summer he’s being enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Let’s support him back by sending him a tribute with the Ocean of Soul marching band.​
Now through July 31, you have the chance to show Michael how much he means to TSU by making a gift that will help send the Ocean of Soul marching band on the Road to Canton to perform at the Enshrinement Celebration.​

You can Support-A-Student for just $411, but every gift helps. What a great way to show Michael, and the nation, how proud we are to be Tigers!

Giving is easy online at https://tsu.thankyou4caring.org/oceanofsoul-roadtocanton. Be sure to share your gift using #tsuroadtoCanton on your social media sites.​
