Your Gift Creates Opportunity
Help a graduating senior take the next step toward college
Every student deserves the opportunity to pursue higher education without financial hardship standing in the way. For many graduating seniors, the dream of attending college—especially at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs)—is filled with excitement, hope, and ambition. However, rising tuition costs, books, and enrollment fees can quickly turn that dream into an overwhelming challenge.
A Gift From Tray was created to bridge that gap. Our mission is rooted in the belief that financial limitations should never determine a student’s future. By providing meaningful scholarship support, we help students take their first steps into higher education with confidence, dignity, and peace of mind.
When you donate, your generosity goes directly toward easing the financial burden students face at one of the most important moments of their lives. Your support helps cover tuition expenses, required textbooks, and essential academic resources—allowing students to focus on learning, growth, and success rather than stress and uncertainty.
Every contribution, no matter the size, becomes part of a larger story of impact and opportunity. Your gift represents more than financial assistance—it represents belief, encouragement, and investment in the next generation of leaders. Together, we can turn college dreams into realities and ensure students begin their journey empowered, supported, and prepared for what lies ahead.
Where Your Donation Goes
At A Gift From Tray, every donation represents belief—belief in students, belief in education, and belief in the power of opportunity. We are committed to using each contribution with intention and integrity to support graduating high school seniors as they take the next step toward higher education.
Your support directly helps us provide scholarship assistance to students who are ready to pursue college but may need additional support to get there. These scholarships help students begin their college journey with confidence, knowing that their community stands behind them.
Your donation supports:
- College scholarships for graduating high school seniors
- Educational resources that help students prepare for college success
- Academic readiness and transition support during a critical life milestone
Beyond financial assistance, your generosity sends a powerful message to each student we serve—that their goals matter and their future is worth investing in. By supporting A Gift From Tray, you are helping remove barriers, open doors, and create pathways for students to move forward with purpose and pride.
Together, we are doing more than giving—we are uplifting dreams, strengthening futures, and building a legacy of opportunity that extends far beyond the classroom.
