To provide educational enrichment programs that develop and support youth in overcoming social and economic barriers to achievement
During these unprecedented times as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, organizations of all types are faced with making critical shifts in the services they provide. Lincoln Foundation is no exception. All of our programs have been impacted as we operate remotely under the current quarantine and social distancing guidelines. We recognize this is also having an adverse effect on the youth we serve.
Lincoln Foundation has empowered youth to overcome adversity through education since its inception by Berea College over 100 years ago. The independently operated organization today offers outside-of-school academic college access and college success programs for under-resourced youth throughout the Louisville Metropolitan area. The Foundation’s signature Whitney M. Young Scholars Program annually admits high potential youth who demonstrate academic promise and, over the course of six years, prepares them for high school graduation and matriculation through college.
Every student deserves the opportunity to achieve their full potential. Our student support starts in the 8th grade to overcome educational disparities, financial barriers, and resource gaps.
