Give the gift of opportunity
Your gift to Chicago Scholars is more than a donation. It's an investment in Chicago's homegrown talent. Our Scholars have big ideas for the future — all they need is an opportunity. Will you be the one to open the door?
About this Campaign
A gift to Chicago Scholars is an easy way to turn holiday generosity into measurable, long‑term impact for Chicago’s 77 neighborhoods. Your generosity goes to a proven, sustained seven‑year pathway that not only helps talented, first‑generation students get into college, but stays with them through graduation and into their careers. We provide one‑to‑one college counseling, mentors, paid internships, emergency grants, and strong college and employer partnerships that reduce financial barriers and increase college graduation rates.
