ABOUT US
At Luminary Scholars, our vision is to eliminate educational disparities and cultivate a world where every student, regardless of their background, has the opportunity to achieve their academic and personal dreams. Founded in June 2024, we are driven by the stark disparities in educational opportunities we witnessed firsthand. This inspiration led us to develop comprehensive scholarship resources, insightful publications, and engaging social media content designed to empower students and foster a supportive community.
We are committed to bridging the educational gap by dismantling barriers and advocating for educational equity. Through our Scholarship Support, Publications and Media, and Mentorship and Community Building programs, we provide the essential tools and support students need to navigate higher education successfully. Our initiatives inspire belief in the power of hard work and encourage the sharing of perspectives, enabling students to support each other in achieving their goals.
With over 800 applications received, 260,000 interactions on our platforms, and 10 million interactions demonstrating our extensive reach, Luminary Scholars is making a significant impact. We envision a future where every student is empowered to succeed, creating a more equitable and inclusive educational landscape for generations to come.
How: We provide college readiness resources through weekly materials posted on Google Classroom, each accommodating 250 students.
