One Scholarship. One Year. A Lifetime of Possibility.

Tax deductible
We are The Guardsmen Waitlist Class of 2024 — and we’re asking for your help to unlock opportunity for six under-resourced Bay Area children who are ready to succeed but face real financial barriers to continuing their education.

We’ve set a collective goal:

Fund six Guardsmen Scholarships one per class member — at $2,200 each, helping under-resourced youth access the educational opportunities they deserve.

Why This Matters

Education should open doors, not close them. But for many Bay Area families, the cost of school — tuition, transportation, uniforms, technology, tutoring — creates financial stress that too often puts children at risk of falling behind or dropping out.

The Guardsmen Scholarship Program doesn’t fund full tuition — and it doesn’t have to. Instead, our scholarships provide targeted financial aid to fill the gap and offset the cost of education, so families can keep their children in supportive school environments that work for them.

These scholarships provide stability, peace of mind, and hope.

When you donate, you’re not just making school possible — you’re helping a family breathe easier, and a child believe they belong.

The Power of One

  • $2,200 offsets the cost of one child’s education for a full academic year.
  • $1,100 funds a semester of support.
  • $220 helps cover key monthly expenses like tutoring, uniforms, or transportation.

Every gift, no matter the size, creates meaningful relief and forward momentum.
