Partnerships Drive Our Success
College Affordable brings together college financial experts, donors and the community to maximize access to the opportunities to reduce college costs for prospective and current college students.
Donors
Private and institutional donors are the lifeblood of College Affordable. Their generosity allows access to the support tools to help make an affordable college education a reality for underserved communities and families who are struggling to balance the cost of college with life’s other pressing demands. Each donation opens the door to thousands of dollars in grants and scholarships available to students from colleges and other organizations.
- Individual philanthropists and foundation with education priorities
- Institutions with philanthropic programs aimed at supporting their communities
- Private donors tied to geographic areas and/or school types (re: Catholic schools)
