Through Hope Chicago, an organization founded by philanthropist Pete Kadens, many Chicago teens have received debt-free college scholarships.
On top of fully covering the students’ tuition and fees, the nonprofit also gives one of each student’s parents or guardians the chance to attend college, ultimately impacting over 4,000 Chicagoans.
📣 “I can just go and be what I want to be.”
No more anxiety over 💰 for college. Give hope today and help us expand access to debt-free higher education for more CPS students and their families.
When they succeed, we all succeed. #HopeChicago pic.twitter.com/U34bZSjp67
