About this organization
Mission
Dedicated to guiding parents and students through the financial assistance application process.
About
Assist students with higher education by offering scholarships. A committee comprised of individuals working in the field of college access, Fairfax County School Board members and donors are invited to review scholarship applications on a Saturday in May. A rubric has been created to score various elements of the application. Reviewers are asked not to score any applicant where there may be a conflict of interest and sign a statement attesting to that requirement. CAF continues to be the funding agent for the Bailey's Literacy Scholarships, which awarded $200 book scholarships for students who completed mentoring activities at Bailey's Elementary School. These scholarships are funded by Capital One and the Bailey's Elementary School PTA. CAF also provides $250 'book scholarships,' awarded as a drawing, as incentives for student attendance at workshops and seminars.
