History of the Fostering Futures Scholarship

The Fostering Futures Scholarship Trust Fund, housed in the Michigan Department of Treasury, is a Sec. 170 (c) nonprofit organization whose mission is to provide scholarships to former foster youth enrolled at Michigan colleges and universities. The Fund was established in 2012 to provide scholarships to students who have experienced foster care and do not have adequate financial resources to attend college. It was re-established as an endowment and scholarship trust fund in 2015 by amendment to Public Act 525 of 2008. Your donation may be tax deductible.
