About the Recipient

This kit was designed with Minds Matter of Colorado. Minds Matter Colorado connects driven and determined students from low-income families with the people, preparation, and possibilities to succeed in college, create their future, and change the world.

College enrollment rates vary greatly depending on the socioeconomic status of a student’s family. About 89% of students from well-off families go to college compared to 64% of students from middle-class families, and 51% of students from low-income families. Minds Matter provides mentorship to students from low-income families to support their college dreams, prepare them for college, and help get them into college.
