Every fall, HBCUs across the country light up with pride, tradition, and celebration during homecoming season. This year, Black Girl Vitamins (BGV) is bringing something new to the yard, wellness.

Through its Homecoming of Health Tour, BGV is showing up on 20 HBCU campuses nationwide from October 4 to November 7, 2025, creating unforgettable health-centered experiences for students, alumni, and the entire HBCU community.

What started last year as a four-campus experiment has now blossomed into a full movement. With double the energy and five times the reach, BGV is redefining what homecoming season can look like when health, nutrition, and community empowerment are placed at the center.

Why Homecoming Matters for Wellness

Homecoming has always been about more than tailgates and step shows. It is a time where generations come together, honoring legacy, Black excellence, and communal strength.

“Homecomings are more than school pride. They’re celebrations of Black excellence and communal strength,” explains Jennifer Juma, Chief Strategy Officer of Black Girl Vitamins. “Our goal is to honor those roots by prioritizing health education, nutrition, and wellness for Black women everywhere.”

By connecting the joy of homecoming to the importance of health, BGV is reminding students and alumni alike that taking care of our bodies is part of protecting our legacy.

What Happens at Each Stop

The Homecoming of Health Tour is not just a table with samples—it’s a full wellness experience. At each campus, students can:

• Join interactive wellness activities that spark conversation and movement.
  

• Learn from on-site nutrition and health education sessions tailored to Black women’s unique needs.
  

• Try BGV’s science-backed supplements firsthand, including fan favorites like Vitamin D3, Meno-Chill, Hair Skin & Nails, and the newly launched Her Balance probiotic.
  

• Connect with community ambassadors and BGV team members who are passionate about creating safe spaces for health education.
  
  

The result is a celebration that honors tradition while planting seeds of wellness for the future.
