The FOSSI Scholarship has made a world of difference for our family. It has eased the financial stress of college and allowed our daughter, Skylar, to focus on her education and future goals without the added worry. We are incredibly thankful for this support, which has opened doors and given Skylar the chance to pursue her dreams. It truly means so much to us.
FOSSI Corporate Supporters
I am passionate about pursuing a degree in STEM because STEM is the future and I want to be a part of something that is bigger than myself.
Transforming the future of STEM
FOSSI celebrates 740 high school seniors who were selected to receive a $40,000 scholarship ($10,000 per year of college) to pursue a preferred STEM degree at an HBCU.
ACC and our members are committed to enhancing diversity in our facilities, our Board rooms and the communities in which we operate. We are proud to be a founding partner in this important initiative.
