Single Mom Scholars

Single Mom Scholars is a 2Generation approach to breaking the cycle of poverty. Through its comprehensive scholarship program, low-income single moms are empowered to earn a college degree and establish a career while their children are given the opportunity to gain social capital, build leadership skills and improve academic performance.

“Finding Single Mom Scholars was like finding a dream I didn’t know I was missing. Not only did I find other amazing women striving to challenge traditional stereotypes and norms but I also found a support system which we know, is an invaluable asset to anyone trying to achieve more. I feel proud to be part of a life-long community of people that can lift you through the hard days and still encourage you to rise.” -Quanisha
