Gabrielle Union knows the value of a sturdy support system. But she also knows that not everyone has one.
She made this point at Monday night's 11th Annual Night of Opportunity Gala held in New York City for The Opportunity Network, a nonprofit that works with students from historically and systematically underrepresented communities achieve their college and career goals.
