The central focus of the Foundation is to help individuals from underrepresented groups (African-Americans, Hispanic Americans, Pacific Islanders, and first-generation college) who will be attending college or vocational school to become self-sustaining financially for themselves and their families by:
- Provide financial and other resources to current high school seniors attending school in the U.S, anticipating completion of a high school diploma at the time of application and planning to pursue a degree at an accredited U.S. post-secondary institution or vocational school (“Undergraduate Aid”)
- Provide financial and other resources to students who have had to discontinue their college or vocational education due to a unexpected life crisis or financial burden
- Provide financial and other resources to adults who are forced to find another career due to corporation restructuring or loss of work.
Open Application Period for Fall 2025 is from July 6, 2025 through August 9, 2005 at 11:59 p.m.
