EDUCATION & SCHOLARSHIPS
Education Changes What Comes Next.
This section is being built for two people at once: a current or former foster youth looking for help paying for school or training, and a community member who wants to create an educational opportunity for someone else.
HELP FOSTER YOUTH · THANK A TEACHER
Thank A Teacher
Did a teacher, coach, mentor, counselor, or other special person change the course of your life? Honor their impact by creating a scholarship in their name for a current or former foster youth.
Their influence changed your life. Let it help change another.
Thank A Teacher is a separate Help Foster Youth initiative hosted at thankateacher.net. It is not affiliated with, connected to, or administered by any organization listed elsewhere on this page.
