Our Story

​Navigating the college application process can be overwhelming for many high school students. And when students get to college, many hit roadblocks and veer off course. For many, the key to successfully completing college is benefiting from a support system. Unfortunately, too many students from our community lack resources and guidance.

That is why in 2011, we started Evanston Scholars. 

​And now, with passionate staff, dedicated mentors, individual donors from the community, grants, and numerous volunteers, we are successfully building our program. Our network is growing. Our Scholars are becoming more prepared for the future. Our community is benefiting.
