Legacy Awardee Updates

The 50 Promising Youth are moving right along with their educational plans: 15 students remain in high school; and 35 students are presently attending college. Of the 35 college students, 28 are attending an in-state college or university, and the remaining seven are pursuing their higher education at an out-of-state college or unversity.

Mentors Needed --  In addition to the financial award, selected recipients will have access to mentoring and other critical supports to ensure successful matriculation through post-secondary education. If you are interested in making a commitment to assisting one or more of our chosen 50, please visit the Coleman A. Young Foundation for more information.

Mentoring Deadline: November 14, 2011
