We invite you to experience the joy of fundamentally altering a child's life from sadness and scarcity to one of joy and opportunity.

Costs and Contributing

The one year cost for a child to attend the Genesis private school is $800. This 'deal of the century' covers the cost of their education, uniforms, a lunch meal, and even a doctor visit...as well as a new life of opportunity and hope. A scholarship is only offered to a child when enough funds have been raised to guarantee that child's education until he/she reaches high school (Colegio). For example, a 5th grader will receive a two year scholarship, for 5th and 6th grade, ensuring they can attend the private school, Genesis, until they reach Colegio. No partial scholarships, such as a one year scholarship, will be available (except for 6th graders). Therefore, to determine the full cost of a scholarship we multiply $800 (per year cost) by the number of years until they reach high school.

The following table illustrates the cost structure...

Scholarship Cost Structure
Scholarship DurationScholarship Cost
6th Grade Only $800
5th Grade - 6th Grade$1,600
4th Grade - 6th Grade$2,400
3rd Grade - 6th Grade$3,200

Contributions

Contributions may be made for any amount over $100. We request that you make a commitment to any contribution on an annual basis to ensure adequate budgeting and funding for the children based on our commitment to ensure a child’s education until Colegio. Contributions do not have to be for the entire scholarship amount, however, children waiting for this opportunity sure appreciate it!
