FAITH Scholars Get Lifeline | Jackson News

Mississippi’s FAITH Scholarship faced a funding shortfall, leaving 170 foster care alumni without aid—but the Woodward Hines Education Foundation stepped in with an $800K pledge to ensure these students still get the education they deserve. Colleges are also helping find additional grants and aid, highlighting how public, private, and educational partners can unite to remove financial barriers for young people who’ve aged out of foster care. Students denied initially are urged to contact their college’s financial aid office, and donations are welcome through the FAITH Scholars Fund.
