Our organization's purpose is to crowdfund scholarship money to fund the academic aspirations of students in economically disadvantaged communities. We believe that education is one of the most powerful tools for economic mobility, and if used properly, can change a generation.
Jaret and Carletha Ings are both graduates of high schools that serve students in economically disadvantaged communities. The scholarships we received helped us achieve our goal of obtaining college degrees and build generational wealth (financially and intellectually). We are both proud graduates of the historic Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University. Our nonprofit was started to pay it forward to communities in need.
Being that we were both scholarship students in underserved communities where few attended college, we recognized the need to bridge capital and aspirations.
Our focus is to make the maximum positive impact in economically disadvantaged communities. We seek donors to assist in providing the momentum that helps us effect change.
Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goal of improving economic conditions for high school students in economically disadvantaged communities by awarding college scholarships.
