who we serve
Each year, with your support, we give as many scholarships as we can. Since 2015, we have issued over 80 scholarships to low-income youth who are entering college and trade programs. Scholarship recipients are graduates from alternative high schools and are typically low-income, first generation college students who have overcome challenges to succeed in high school.
