Who are you supporting by participating?

Martinez Fellows:

Studies have shown the benefits of having a teaching force that reflects the diversity of the students. Teachers of color boost academic achievement, high school graduation rates, and aspirations of going to college for students of color. However, statistics indicate that the racial makeup of teachers (11% of color) has not changed at the same pace as that of students (50% of color). The TAF's Martinez Fellowship program focuses on recruitment and retention of teachers of color in public schools. The funds will be used to provide scholarships to candidates of color to enroll in our teacher education program as TAF's Martinez Fellows.

Honors Program:

The Honors Program is a community of serious and engaged students asking big questions, guided by Honors faculty representing the breadth of SPU's liberal arts curriculum. Our rigorous program of core courses encourages students to go deeper with their college education; the lively array of social programming ensures that this journey is not undertaken alone, but rather in context of deep friendship. Your generous gift to the University Scholars Honors Program is a commitment to this legacy, and an investment in a community of bright young adults being prepared for a world that needs their talents! Donations will be used to support both the academic and social life of the Honors Program throughout the year, including events like the annual Honors Research Symposium, Honors Graduation, and other community-building activities.
