What we do

  • Scholarships

    Our scholarships are designed to aid low-income students in their pursuit of an undergraduate college degree. Final scholarship amounts range from $500 to $5,000, based on demonstrated financial need. Scholarship recipients are also offered a range of Scholar Support Services, including mentoring, leadership development and knowledge building.

  • Mentoring

    We believe that every student has the potential to graduate from a four-year university. We aim to help students on their road to success by assisting in providing guidance in their class selections, offering mid-course and finals wellness check-ins and providing mentoring and coaching along every step of the college journey.

  • Events

    We will host our 2024 Annual JAR Family Foundation Luncheon event on May 19, 2024, where we will award three new recipients with scholarships.
