Your Donation Makes a Direct Impact

Give today to provide financial support, leadership development, and community to postsecondary students in need. And consider making it monthly for support Point Scholars can keep counting on!

$75

Could help cover a Point Community College Scholar’s transfer application fee. Nationally, each year 31% of community college students successfully transfer to a four-year institution, compared with 64% of Point Community College Scholars—more than DOUBLE the national rate.

$100

Could help pay for a Point Access Scholar’s student activities fee. These fees are often not included in the estimated cost of attendance and, if unpaid, prevent a student from registering for classes or graduating.

$150

Could help cover annual laboratory fees for a Point Scholar studying biology, chemistry, medicine, or another science-related field. These fees provide access to campus laboratories and opportunities to participate in scientific studies.
