Affordability for Foster Youth, First Generation College Students, Single Moms and Veteran Students
At Jessup, the executive team, faculty and staff are dedicated to promoting the success of students through access, vision, support and skills. The collaborative approach across the university's offices ensures each student receives an affordable and achievable Christ-centered higher education.
During this year's Give:24 efforts, we are excited to promote the success of four very important student groups represented on our campus: foster youth, first generation, single moms, and veterans
As a community we can come alongside these groups of students to build up their faith, as well as their academic and professional success through the following scholarships:
- Foster Youth | Through our OnRamp program for foster youth, we are making Christ-centered higher education more accessible and affordable. Our goal is that these students receive programming that leads to success and graduate with little to no debt.
- Single Moms | Scholarships for single mothers will enable many single mothers to either return to Jessup to finish their education and/or provide the necessary funding to complete their goals and enter a career that can support their family.
- First Generation College Students | When a first-generation college student completes their degree, the trajectory of generations often changes. Your support makes it possible for first-generation students to achieve their dreams.
- Veterans Mental Health | Military veteran students are deeply valued at Jessup. We are thankful for each man and woman who has served our country, and we want to support and care for their unique needs in return. During this year's Give:24 we are thrilled to be partnering with the Jimmy Miller Memorial Foundation (JMMF). This organization is the world-leader in providing Ocean Therapy for people suffering from trauma-induced mental and physical illness. For every $2,000 raised during Give:24 for Veterans Mental Health, we will be able to provide a scholarship for one of our veteran students to access surf therapy in 2024!
Join us during Give:24 to make Christ-centered higher education more affordable and provide Pathways to Success by giving a gift to support first generation, foster youth, single mom and veteran students here at Jessup.
