What these figures mean
Five young men completed the program in 2025. Four received $20,000 scholarship awards; the fifth was recognized for program completion. These are different measures: program completion, scholarship recipients, and total award value. They do not represent a college graduation rate or the total number of students supported across all cohorts.

Total scholarship value for each of four recipients in the 2025 graduating cohort.
