HOW CAN I HELP?
Donate
An investment that keeps giving. For every $1.00 spent on the SRA program, over $4.00 is returned as direct fiscal benefits represented by increases in federal and state tax receipts (and reductions in federal and state benefits) over the lifetime of SRA students as compared to other low-income, first-generation college students entering four-year colleges1.
College tuition for two students for one year
College dorm supplies for ten students
One laptop and a printer for one student
One year of textbooks
Provides transportation home from college
Miscellaneous school supplies
Everything you give makes a difference. Your generosity helps deliver life-changing opportunity through college and careers.
