Mission Statement
Providing mentors and scholarships to help Pell Grant eligible students go to college and graduate in four years, debt-free.
Description
Working with teachers, school administrators and community organizations, we identify ninth graders who show academic promise but because of their family’s financial resources may not consider college an achievable option.
We then pair selected students with our trained adult mentors who help prepare them academically and socially for the rigors of a four-year university.
Once the students reach their senior year of high school, the foundation assists them with the application process through one of our partner colleges and universities. Selected students receive a college education, at no cost for tuition, fees or room and board. Students continue their relationship with the foundation during their four years of college.
