Take Stock in Children/Doorways Scholarship Program

Through the support of businesses, civic groups, a myriad of organizations and individuals who care enough to invest their resources in the future of our school children, the Doorways Scholarship Initiative, in partnership with Take Stock in Children, is giving low-income students the opportunity to work toward the attainable goal of a college education. While Doorways provides those necessary college tuition funds, this comprehensive program offers so much more including mentors who provide inspiration and guidance and school-based ambassadors who monitor student progress and enhance student learning through enrichment activities. The Doorways program has been so successful, it has become a model for similar programs both statewide and nationally.

Donor contributions are matched dollar-for-dollar by the State of Florida. That means that every contribution, no matter the size, will be doubled in value. Currently, the cost of a full scholarship is $5,800, which will be fully matched to fund one deserving student's college education.
