Welcome to Boston Scholars Program:
Start the New Year by Supporting Educational Opportunities for Boston Youth!
Our mission at the Boston Scholars Program is to Open Doors through Educational Opportunity for low-income Boston youth. Whereas 50-65% of the wealthiest quartile of Americans become college graduates, only 5-8% of Americans in the poorest quartile do the same! At BSP, we help guide underserved students towards achieving goals that once seemed out of reach.
Boston Scholars started in 2004 when Boston professionals wanted to present more educational opportunity to low income youth. Focusing on delivering 1) tuition scholarships so students can enter challenging high schools and 2) one on one mentoring for youth, we have achieved an incredible 100 % high school graduation and college enrollment rate.
The following are the details of our Party.
