Our big goal is to send every child in our neighborhood to college or another form of postsecondary education. One of the greatest barriers to a college education is cost. Through the Act Six program, students receive full-need, full-tuition scholarships to one of our six parter colleges and universities.
One of the highlights of our year is sharing the news with applicants that they have emerged from hundreds of applicants to become one of the 50+ scholars chosen to receive the scholarship. The Act Six scholarship is a full-need, full-tuition scholarship made possible through incredible partnerships at Augsburg University, Bethany Lutheran College, Bethel University, Concordia College, North Central University, and University of Northwestern - St. Paul.
In addition to financial support, each of these young leaders will receive leadership development training and academic support through Urban Ventures during their college career. It is a crucial step in our cradle-to-career pipeline.
You make moments like this possible when you donate to Urban Ventures.
