Collegiate Crossings hasn't added a story.
Dear Family and Friends,
This fall, Collegiate Crossings kicked college planning into high gear. CC launched “Filing the Gap”, a college access program for low-income and first generation students in the St. Vrain Valley School District. We began providing individual counseling with a local alternative school, inaugurated college advisement with Cheer Central in Colorado and New Mexico and began providing services in the Phoenix area. Lots of kids, lots of needs.
In our work we have discovered most students have fears of not having the money or support to apply to college, let alone finish a degree. However, all of our 100+ students are showing great excitement about both of these possibilities. Most have no family track record of post-secondary education, so they are wading into the great unknown. It is our job and privilege to guide them.
Many of our “Filling the Gap” students fear they won’t be able to use our services because of cost. Imagine their relief when they find out each of them is being provided with publicly/privately funded, post-secondary planning and counselling, publicly funded SAT tutorial and prep, and publicly funded career/personality assessments. “Filling the Gap” allows these students our services to provide them the Best Fit college/post-secondary program of their choosing.
Public grants have made it possible to launch this valuable program. But, to staff it and provide all the supplies needed – we are asking for your tax deductible gifts to make it successful.
- $3200 funds a student for 4 years of college planning
- $100 a month would be one meeting a month for 5 low income kids
- $500 is one 2 hour workshop for 25 students and their families!!
Your end of year donation to Collegiate Crossings is tax deductible and supports our college access program that will raise our American workforce to the levels they should be.
As one of our parents recently wrote to us, “This is the chance we never dreamed our child would have. Thank you Collegiate Crossings!”
We appreciate your support to continue giving students and families this kind of encouragement and hope.
You can give on-line… http://www.collegiatecrossings.com/you-can-help/
Have a great Thanksgiving and Christmas season!
Blessings,
Carey McClure, Executive Director
