Futures in Education is also a proud partner with Children’s Scholarship Fund (CSF), which administers the Teddy J. Forstmann Scholarship program. CSF is a national 501(c)(3) charity funded entirely with private dollars, and believes a quality elementary school education puts children on the path to success in life. CSF provides scholarships to low-income families so their children can attend the K-8 schools that will help them reach their full potential.
Tuition assistance awards are based on household size and income, and cover a percentage of tuition, and the maximum award is $2,000. To renew the award each year, families will need to re-apply each year.
