Fostering Terp Success is committed to providing the resources and support necessary to help our students graduate with a college degree--and doing so means ensuring that their basic needs are met, including food and housing. Your donation enables us to meet critical needs and helps us ensure individualized and student-driven support!
Fostering Terp Success Program Fund
The Program Fund enables our staff to purchase supplies to meet students’ essential needs and provide programmatic support. Funds are used to purchase hygiene items (soap, toothpaste, shampoo, etc.), school supplies, public transportation/Metro cards, grocery cards, graduation regalia (caps & gowns), and to support the valuable services and resources provided by the Fostering Terp Success program.
Fostering Terp Success Scholarship Fund
The Fostering Terp Success Scholarship Fund provides scholarships and micro-grants to Fostering Terp Success (FTS) students with unmet needs, which often include tuition and fees, meal plans, or emergencies. Scholarship funds are also used to provide end-of-semester stipends to those FTS students who complete the requirements of the program (e.g., meeting regularly with their campus coach). Scholarship fund awards are made directly to the FTS student in need.
