About this user

The Stewardship Foundation is concerned about orphans and foster care youths who are approaching their senior year of high school who remain unadopted. In addition, there are no plans or provisions to transfer legal custody to a relative or alternative caregiver. Depending on the state of residence, these adolescents begin to age out of the foster care system, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, at age 18. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services estimates there are 20,000 adolescents per year leaving the foster care system upon reaching the age of 18. We endeavor to help young adults who possess personal and academic promise but are facing this situation, to be able to attend the school of their choosing by bridging the monetary gap between the cost of tuition, room and board, and the financial aid offered by the educational institution and federal and state governments.

The Stewardship Foundation also has a very strong concern about the living conditions and opportunities available to orphans around the world, particularly within nations without ample resources to provide support for children without parents. Aiding these children is an important part of the funding objective of the Foundation and as we network within the charitable community, build our staff, grow the endowment, and gain experience, we will expand the scope of our program to meet this objective.
