About the Ellis Foundation

At the Ellis Foundation, we provide a way for private and corporate donors to make a positive financial impact on the lives of scholarship recipients by giving those with limited resources access to higher education.

More than that, we offer in-depth guidance and exceptional support to each and every student to ensure they have a successful college career and a bright future full of possibility. This includes a mentoring program, regular face-to-face and online contact sessions, and connecting students with others who work in their chosen field.

The result of having someone champion each student and providing valuable advice and support is a graduation rate of almost twice the national average. We give students a hand up rather than a handout.
