Schooling Justice Fund by cairEDucation

Farah Assiraj is launching this funding campaign to raise scholarship funds that will change the lives of students who have encountered barriers to higher education and lifelong learning. Your donation will change the lives of students affected by economic and immigration challenges, wealth gaps, and historical underrepresentation in higher education by investing the following scholarships: - The Latifa Hakim Scholarship for English Learners for high school seniors. Students who are undocumented, LGBTQIA+, those with a disability, applicants with financial need, and those who are indigenous or of Global Majority are strongly encouraged to apply for this scholarship opportunity. - The Schooling Justice for All Scholarship will be available for high school seniors. The scholarship is for students who have faced significant hardship(s) in high school, providing them with access to college or trade school and who have overcome a hardship such as mental health, physical health, chronic absenteeism, high suspensions or disruptive school behaviors, houselessness, loss of a parent, gun violence trauma, substance abuse, re-engaged as a drop-out student, gang affiliation, and/or teen parenting may apply. Students who are undocumented, LGBTQIA+, those with a disability, applicants with financial need, and those who are indigenous or of Global Majority are strongly encouraged to apply for this scholarship opportunity.
