Students who accept financial aid from the Foundation are required to return to their communities and perform annual Service-to-Children projects with younger children of color. - Service-to-Children Program: While attending college, Page Scholars perform volunteer service that brings them into contact with students of color in grades K - 8. Each Page Scholar is required to volunteer at least 50 hours during the academic year - roughly 2 hours a week during the school year. The purpose of the service requirement is to present each Page Scholar as a mentor and role model to children of color before the younger students have decided (or have been convinced) that education is not important. - Page Connections: The program recruits volunteer adult mentors to partner with its Page Scholars. These adults support the Scholars in a variety of ways, particularly with completing their service-to-children projects. Senior Mentors create an important link between the Foundation and Scholars.
