Andrea Galen Jacks Scholarship Fund

Community Foundation of Burke County

Originally established to provide scholarships to eligible graduating foster teens (in the custody of Burke County Department of Social Services) it has evolved into an "Educational Needs Project" for foster children as well. By providing educational tools (tutoring, mentoring, educational software, etc.) to help students attain grade level, more students will be prepared to graduate high school with the educational knowledge to pursue a secondary education.
