Interested in Mentoring?
Traditional scholarships hand the institution a check and wish the student well. CEON Foundation pairs every scholarship with a senior executive mentor for the full year. The feedback we hear is that the mentor is as valuable as the money and makes an incredible difference. Those mentors come from our community, which is where you come in.
Who our scholars are
Our recipients are Ron Clark Academy alumni now working toward four-year degrees at nationally ranked universities, liberal arts colleges, and HBCUs. They are pre-qualified high performers. Most already earned substantial scholarships to get there. Our awards of $3,500 to $5,000 cover the in-between expenses, like books, travel, and food, that traditional aid leaves behind.

THE RON CLARK ACADEMY PIPELINE
Recipients are pre-qualified high performers.
200+ RCA alumni are in college right now. Most arrive with tuition aid in place. What aid does not reach is what stops them: textbooks, food, transportation, the winter coat. CEON Foundation closes that gap. Your gift goes directly to the student.
