Guardian Scholars are exceptional when they enter the program – exceptional for their ambition and determination to earn a college degree despite the difficulties and disappointments they have been handed in life. In the Guardian Scholars program they encounter caring people: university advisors, donors, board members, community members and others who are equally determined that these youth have access to the resources necessary to fulfill their dreams. As a partner, you can assist these youth as they design their university experience, work lives and futures.
