Just wanted to take some time to say THANK YOU to all those who shared, donated, and have supported Guardian Scholars this year for One Ball State Day. We are excited to let you know that we raised at least $5,161 from 30 generous donors! We will receive our official total next month including challenges and matches. As always, thank you for generously supporting our Guardian Scholar students! And if you haven't had a chance to check out Brian and Victoria's videos, check them out to see the impact your donations make on our students!

Our students THANK YOU for making an impact in their lives and college careers! Each dollar donated to the Guardian Scholars on One Ball State Day goes towards providing scholarships and services to students who experienced foster care. Please share these remarkable students with those you know who have an interest in supporting the higher ed needs of vulnerable students!
