College Scholarship & Financial Aid

To date, we have donated over $400,000 in college scholarships to first generation students. We also offer mentoring support, occupational training, and lifelong networking opportunities.
Each recipient is awarded $5,000 in scholarship aid over the course of a four year degree. Our students are asked to meet at least a 3.0 GPA, participate in extracurricular activities, and volunteer their time and service to local community groups. Scholarship Applications are due by April 1, 2024.
