Your Gift in Action

Here’s how your support can help:

- $250 covers certification or exam fees
- $150 provides support for an average textbook
Basic Needs & Emergency Support

Scholarship support for those ineligible for MassEducate and MassReconnect is critical to ensure access for everyone seeking to improve their lives through education.
