Our goal

Quality in education is important across all levels, even before college. A student's high school portfolio has a major impact on their future opportunities, and being in debt so early in their educational career because of fees is an easy way to restrict them. We believe it is a right for students to be able to access essential aspects of a quality education, such as extracurriculars, sports, and advanced classes, without having to fear the consequences of the resulting fees, such as a withheld diploma. The success of this small-scale scholarship will be the catalyst for broadening our scope for a wider impact in future cycles. The ideal outcome is to increase inclusivity across campus by making quality education accessible. By awarding 2 students with the necessary funds to free them from high school debt, we impact their education in the long term and even out early-life disparities.

It's important for highschoolers to have a safety net when entering into college, whether it be for tuition, room and board, books, and/or personal fees and expenses. No one should feel the need to overexplain their story or prove themselves worthy to have financial support. If you need it, you simply should get it. This initiative supports that, and I hope it continues at SVHS, and I will ensure to do as much as I can to support it :). Thank you for launching this for students!
