Beyonc is celebrating the one-year anniversary of her earth-shattering visual album Lemonade by helping young women pay for college.

The singer announced her new program Formation Scholars on Monday, named after her powerfully pro-black single Formation. The program, as a part of her #BeyGood initiative, will award young ladies who are unafraid to think outside the box and are bold, creative, conscious and confident for the 2017-2018 school year.

One student from each participating school Berklee College of Music, Parsons School of Design and historically black college or universities Howard University and Spelman College will be selected. Formation Scholars will give four scholarships to an incoming, current or graduate student studying creative arts, music, literature or African-American studies.
