Fostering Success for Independent Scholars

Who we are:

Fostering Success for Independent Scholars (FSIS) is a program for students lacking traditional family supports afforded to most of their peers, including those aging out foster care or guardianship.

How we Live Maroon:

FSIS ensures students have the resources and guidance necessary for their success, connecting them with advisors, tutors, material support, career readiness, and other enrichment opportunities.

Why Give Maroon:

Your contributions address our students’ vital needs, addressing food insecurity and providing a safety net for those at risk of homelessness, helping to open up a pathway towards hope.
