The Forward Steps Guardian Scholars program supports former foster youth as they pursue a postsecondary education through financial support, 1:1 mentoring & resource navigation, professional development, and customized career development.

The Guardian Scholars program has 34 scholars in the 25/26 cohort and 8 eligible applicants for the Spring semester. We need to raise $204,000 to fully support the current cohort this academic year.

Only 13.4% of youth who have experience in foster care in Colorado enroll in postsecondary education by age 21, compared to 49.9% of their peers. Of that 13%, just 3% graduate with a college degree.


I'm sponsoring one scholar for the 25/26 academic year at $6K and have pledged $3K to that goal - will you help me raise the rest to support one deserving scholar?
