It’s heartbreaking to watch student success get derailed—not because of grades, effort, or ability—but because of financial struggles that, for many people, would be nothing more than a slight inconvenience. I’ve seen students pour their hearts into building a better future. They show up, they work hard, and they dream big. But sometimes, something as small as a gas bill, a car repair, or the cost of a textbook is enough to knock them off course. No student should have to choose between their education and basic survival.

The vision of the Foundation is to enrich, improve, and change the lives of area residents through education at Howard College San Angelo.
