We Change Mindsets
Our mission is to educate high school students about their college and trade options with a unique focus on helping them and their families navigate how to finance their chosen option. We change mindsets, especially among first generation students who do not think they can afford college or a trade program.
“At the HORUS Scholars fair in Washington DC, I met with representatives of the carpenters union. After graduation I will be working with a construction company for pay while I work to get my training (and they will cover the cost of my training too!) ”
“At the HORUS Scholars College, Trades, and Scholarship fair in Tampa, I received over $300,000 in scholarship offers at 8 different colleges.”
Over 500 Colleges
In collaboration with our partners last season, the 20 fairs were attended by over 8,000 students and their families. The participating colleges and trades programs awarded over $100 million in scholarships, proving to the students and parents that they can afford a college or trades program education and graduate debt-free.
