A Boost Upward
Imagine how much stronger our region would be if every adult had access to the education and training they needed to reach their potential.
Your tax-deductible donation to Upward Scholars makes it possible for our immigrant neighbors to persevere in their community college education and pursue the degree or professional training necessary to improve their lives and careers, uplift their families, and move our entire community forward.
Your donation is an investment in our community’s future. Give today and transform the lives of immigrant students as they pursue their dreams in 2024!
