THESE PARTNERS WERE ABLE TO DISSEMINATE SCIENTIFICALLY ACCURATE, AND EASILY DIGESTIBLE INFORMATION AND FACILITATE PATHWAYS TO HEALTH-RELATED SERVICES. THESE RELATIONSHIPS CONTINUE TO BE CULTIVATED SO THAT A NETWORK OF COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS CAN ASSIST IN TIMES OF CRISIS. THIS IS IN KEEPING WITH THE FOUNDATION'S MISSION TO BUILD PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS FOR HEALTH AND WELLNESS INITIATIVES. 219414 72293 THE REACHING FOR SUCCESS AND INDEPENDENCE THROUGH EDUCATION (RISE) COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM HAS AWARDED OVER 100 COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIPS TO HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS SINCE INCEPTION OF THE PROGRAM.
