The Ed Fund, in collaboration with WCCUSD and the Richmond Promise, is thrilled to have been awarded a $72,000 grant by the Education Credit Management Corporation Foundation (ECMC) to help graduating seniors throughout West Contra Costa complete their financial aid applications between now and Sept 1st. Staff from each organization are offering additional support for West Contra Costa students by providing office hours via Zoom and in person (see flyer for more info). The working group will also host a Financial Aid Completion event in partnership with Contra Costa College on August 6th from 5:30-7:30 pm, where students and families can complete their financial aid documents in a group format. Families and students interested in taking advantage of these services can reach out to Maddie Orenstein at [email protected] with any questions.
