About

Maximize your impact through a matching donation: Thanks to an anonymous foundation, every dollar you give to the Finish Line Scholars Program will be doubled! 


To ensure financial challenges don’t stand in the way of students earning their degrees, we’ve launched the Finish Line Scholars Program. This program provides critical micro-grants to students facing unexpected financial hardships, helping them stay enrolled and on track to graduate. 

Your support during Days of Giving will:
Provide emergency assistance: Helping students cover tuition and fees when unexpected challenges arise.
Ensure students stay on track: Prioritizing juniors and seniors who are close to earning their degree.
Re-enroll students: Re-engaging students who stopped short of completing their degrees and helping them finish their education.
