By helping pay for college, we empower the brightest individuals to become who they were always destined to be.
Because D’Addario & Co. underwrites ALL of our operating costs, 100% of donations go directly to the programs and our cause. “How much of my donation is really going to the programs?” remains an unfortunately common refrain in the world of nonprofits.
