We envision a community that recognizes the importance of educational attainment and assures positive educational outcomes are accessible to all regardless of economic circumstance. In our community, doors will not be closed to those who lack financial resources, and postsecondary education will be available to all with the potential to succeed. To those who share its vision, the Foundation offers opportunities to participate in its realization through financial and in-kind support and volunteerism. The Foundation contributes to enlightened public policy through advocacy for its vision of postsecondary educational opportunity without financial barriers. To build this community, The Scholarship Foundation will: - Promote and provide financial support for postsecondary education; - Assure that students have the information necessary to make sound financial decisions; - Lead a collaborative network of community and educational partners aligned to support student preparation, transition, and persistence to degree completion.
