Emergency Grants

Sometimes a student gets hit hard. Unexpectedly and financially. And unfortunately, many of them drop out of school—often because of a few hundred dollars. Our emergency grant program solves this problem, so students can pursue their education without the constant financial worry.

“Thanks to the EduGuide modules, I find myself studying smarter, giving advice to my peers, and continuing to persevere even when times seem tough.”
April Lewis, Dream Award Recipient

Coaching, mentoring and financial education make a difference for students.

51% of students using EduGuide report better grades

90% of students using Which Way made a positive change to their financial behavior

88% of emergency grant recipients were able to stay in school the next semester
