Help Empower, Advance and Lift up Our Youth

HELP YOUTH FROM THE GUARDIAN AD LITEM PROGRAM FURTHER THEIR EDUCATION

Guardian ad Litem Foundation is asking our generous donors to rally their friends, family, and networks to support our latest initiative to help abused, abandoned and neglected children in our community - The Empowerment Scholarship.

Youth who have been involved in the foster care system face unique challenges and need the support of our community as they navigate their higher education. Although some of these individuals qualify for tuition and fee exemptions, there are many costs associated with post-secondary education that are not typically covered. Private colleges and universities, vocational/trade and career schools, books, computers, meal plans and transportation are a few examples of extra expenses that generally fall under the responsibility of the student. Students who typically have a very limited support system.

The Empowerment Scholarship will help bridge the gap for these individuals as they enter young adulthood. Providing financial assistance to those who qualify to help them reach their fullest potential and rise above their circumstances.

You too can help Empower, Advance and Lift Up Our Youth with peer-to-peer fundraising. Starting a fundraiser is easy to do, and it's fun. We'll even give you all the tools you'll need to make a difference. With your help we can ensure advanced educational opportunities are accessible for all students.
