Celebrating Graduating Foster Youth With Gifts, Celebrations and Scholarships
TO SUPPORT MORE STUDENTS & CONTRIBUTE TO OUR SCHOLARSHIP FUND
GRADUATION IS A MILESTONE!
ONLY HALF OF YOUTH IN FOSTER CARE GRADUATE FROM HIGH SCHOOL
Less than 3% graduate from college, due to insufficient support, lack of appropriate guidance, and unmet financial needs.
“Only half of youth in foster care earn a high school diploma, compared to 91 percent of all students nationwide. Only 15 percent of foster youth attend postsecondary institutions, with only about three percent completing college due to insufficient support, lack of appropriate guidance, and unmet financial needs.”
