We support hundreds of exceptional students

Bay Scholars makes it possible for promising under-resourced students to receive an empowering, change-making education. We financially and personally support Bay Area families that cannot afford the high school education they want for their children.

$10 million in Scholarships

Bay Scholars has disbursed over $10 million in Scholarships, providing access to private college prep education for hundreds of deserving students.

Each $3,500 annual scholarship closes the gap between what our families can afford and the financial aid available at their school, making a private college prep education a reality for our Scholars.

1000+ students aided

1000+ students who have been able to access a life-altering education.
