SEO Annual Fund
Colleges and universities, arts and cultural organizations, and hospitals all have one. The SEO Annual Fund is s a simple way of encouraging alumni, board members, and friends of SEO to make cash gifts, which are the most precious and the hardest to raise.
Your gift to the SEO Annual Fund directly supports the Scholars program, which helps more than 2,000 underserved high school and college students gain the essential skills and confidence they will need for long-term academic and professional success and positive civic engagement. Indeed, Annual Fund dollars literally help us pay for instructors, supplies and materials, technology, and new online curricula and pedagogy, which have been necessary because of Covid. With your support, 90% of Scholars earn their bachelor’s degrees – vs. 20% of low-income college students nationally.
Thanks for considering supporting the SEO Annual Fund.
