History and Founder
The fund was established by Kayla Beaudry, who drew inspiration from her husband's experience with an angel donor who paid his way through university. After graduating with significant debt that could have been much worse without her husband's benefactor, Kayla and her husband Kyle decided to pay it forward to help other deserving students in their community.
