We work hard to keep Bold.org free for everyone.
Bold.org is completely free for both students and donors. To do this, we match students with helpful, vetted, optional resources to get them off to a great start in their education and career.
When students find those resources useful, we earn revenue from partner companies, allowing 100% of your donation to go to the educational expenses of applicants you select.
