COLLEGE EXPOSURE AND ENDOWED SCHOLARSHIPS ARE THE PRIMARY AVENUES BY WHICH WE REMOVE BARRIERS THAT CAN IMPEDE SUCCESS. WE LOOK TOWARDS A FUTURE THAT IS MORE HOPEFUL FOR SCHOLARS WHO DESERVE OF THE OPPORTUNITY TO REACH THEIR FULL POTENTIAL. 0 0 156684 97213 13650 BY ESTABLISHING ENDOWMENTS AT INSTITUTES OF HIGHER LEARNING, KWAME CHARITABLE FOUNDATION PROVIDES AN ENDURING FUND FOR SCHOLARSHIP SUPPORT FOR FIRST GENERATION, PELL GRANT ELIGIBLE STUDENTS WHO ARE ENROLLED IN THE SCHOOLS. THE STUDENTS COMPLETE THE APPLICATION PROCESS, AND EACH SCHOOL ADHERES TO KCF'S GUIDELINES ON SELECTION PARAMETERS EACH SEMESTER. ANNUAL HBCU COLLEGE TOUR TRAVELS BY CHARTERED BUS TAKING UP TO 50 HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS TO VISIT 4-5 HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES THROUGH VARIOUS REGIONS OF THE U.S. THE TOUR, WHICH OCCURS CONTINUED ON SCHEDULE ODURING A WEEK IN MARCH, IS AN AFFORDABLE ROUTE FOR STUDENTS TO BECOME EXPOSED TO SCHOOLS OUTSIDE OF ST. LOUIS, AS WELL AS SOME OF THE LESSER KNOWN HBCU'S THAT ARE OFTEN OVERLOOKED BY HIGH SCHOOL GUIDANCE COUNSELORS. BY SHOULDERING SOME OF THE EXPENSES FOR THE TOUR, STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES NEED ONLY CONTRIBUTE A MODEST AMOUNT, COMPARED TO THE GREAT VALUE THE STUDENTS RECEIVE. OCCASIONAL SUPPORT IS GIVEN TO ORGANIZATIONS WITH EDUCATIONAL COMPONENT THAT SERVE TEENS OR YOUNG ADULTS, SPECIFICALLY THOSE APPLYING TO OR ENROLLED IN COLLEGE OR IN A WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM. 156684 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 4 4 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 X LYDIA HUSTON 3147545619 1204 WASHINGTON AVENUE SAINT LOUIS MO 63103 X X ANTHONY THOMPSON CHAIR 0.50 X X 0 0 0 LYDIA HUSTON SECRETARY / EXEC.
