The Excellence in Education scholarship program awards scholarships to youth in foster care who are continuing on to post-secondary education.  In 2007 we awarded $92,500 in scholarships!

Make a scholarship donation by contacting Susan Allison at 404-351-1678 or susan@catalystforcare.org.

To help youth better understand what we're looking for in a successful application, we created a special training and guide to completing the application process.  To access this information, click below.

We've also compiled a list of other scholarship resources to help foster youth identify additional sources of funding to cover the costs of post-secondary education.

In order to help caregivers better support youth as they prepare for college, we created the training below and summarized a useful Annie E. Casey document on the topic.  It's also great information for youth - check it out!
