The Village P.R.O.J.E.C.T.S. provide links to financial aid information. We also provide the real-life experience stories of persons who have attended college and graduated. They will tell you how they did it. We believe that we can learn from each other. (Scholars Within). So in our discussions we look not only at such things as scholarships, grants, and loans. We also help persons from underrepresented groups to explore and use cost-reducing financial aid such as community support with babysitting, encouragement that fosters a 'can do' attitude, hairdresser/barber assistance, the inclusion of mechanics and other service providers as emergency resources, etc. We also search for information on paid internships that are often overlooked or not known by persons from underserved communities. We identify information on transfer and other credit that would reduce the cost of your education by reducing the number of credit hours that you would need to complete to graduate. We think that the personal stories will be of the greatest value to those of you who are trying to get into or through college; and for those of you who aspire to leadership roles in nursing or other fields. We simply want to balance the scales. Let us help you start A Village of Mentors in your community - you can do it, and we can help! Email us today villageprojects@aol.com
