AFS-USA aims to empower high school students with essential global skills and a passion for creating positive change. Through the Global Citizen Scholarships and Aid program, they are committed to supporting students from all backgrounds.
AFS-USA partners with Community-based Organizations (CBOs), family foundations, individual donors, AFS-USA alums, and others to make Global Citizen Scholarships and Aid possible.
This episode includes interviews with volunteers and staff who work with two CBOs: The Dean’s Future Scholars Program in Reno, Nevada and the QUEST Scholarship Fund in St. Louis, Missouri. We will learn how the opportunity to study abroad has impacted the lives of students in their communities, and why it is so important to support these programs.
