Changing Students’ Lives One Degree at a Time
Your donations can have a transformative impact on students from low-income backgrounds. Help 10,000 Degrees, a nationally-recognized nonprofit organization, support these students to and through college and beyond.
Your generous support will allow us to hire full-time, near-peer Fellows to support more students in your local communities. It will fund programs to give high school seniors a jumpstart on college. Your gift will allow us to present financial aid workshops and support at our partner schools so that more students can complete FAFSA and gain access to free federal financial aid. And so much more.
And through June 30, 2023, the first $50,000 donated through The Giving List will be matched thanks to a generous challenge grant from Susan and Mitch Cohen.
Mission

10,000 Degrees was there all along the way, helping me realize what was truly possible. With their support, I attended the University of San Francisco on a full scholarship, and graduated with honors in economics.”
