Mission Through strategic partnerships, we seek to improve the lives of youth & young adults facing adversity and barriers to success in the communities we serve by creating opportunities to further their learning, development, and education. Vision The vision of CREA Foundation is to provide next step opportunities in education with a focus on college preparation, access, and success for all youth & young adults living within our affordable housing communities. Next Steps CREA Foundation will accomplish its mission by awarding financial scholarships through the CREA Scholars Program to students facing barriers to success who are pursuing post-secondary education and grants to non- profits focused on college prep, access, and success. The foundation will start making scholarship and investments in Indiana starting in Spring 2022. Did you know… “A low-income student is 29% less likely to enroll in postsecondary education directly after high school than a high-income student. Ultimately, only 35% of low- income high school students obtain a postsecondary credential by age 26…With the right support, low-income students and students of color succeed at similar rates to wealthier, majority-race students.” – National College Attainment Network CREA Foundation’s goal is to provide a solution to meet the growing challenge experienced by low-income students in our communities by providing financial scholarships and support for students on their post- secondary education pathway to completion.
