LEAD Organization "Speaks FAFSA" - "HABLAMOS FAFSA":
84 ($1,000 incentive scholarships) awarded during our 2014 FREE Cash for College workshops!
8/5/14: Yearly, a broad array of community stakeholders and organizations, regionally coordinated by LEAD, and jointly planned with the Partners of the IE Regional Collaborative, host more than 100 FREE Cash for College workshopsacross San Bernardino and Riverside Counties. Students and families can attend FREE Cash for College workshops for help to fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and Cal Grant GPA Verification Form required for Cal Grants.
Currently 1 out of every 7 Cash for College Financial Aid workshops in the whole state of CA takes place here in the Inland Empire, from January 1 through March 2nd.
In just the last few years, we have:
- assisted close to 12,000 families in the Inland Empire to complete their FAFSA financial aid application.
- brought in to date more than $ 65 million dollars to our region in what may or would have easily been otherwise unclaimed financial aid monies.
This year (2014), we had:
- scheduled a total of 104 workshops.
- assisted a total of 4,656 students who had attended our workshops.
- 84 scholarship awardees (one per each 25 persons or combined workshop).
