For many students, understanding the financial aid process is one of the biggest hurdles to accessing higher education. For SMASH alumnus Zuriel Johnson, this was especially true. Growing up, he knew he wanted to go to college, but the resources and knowledge he needed weren’t readily available. Through SMASH, Zuriel learned about financial aid and scholarships and was encouraged to apply for 100 scholarships. His hard work paid off: today, he’s a senior at Morehouse College, studying on a full scholarship thanks to his persistence and SMASH’s support. Now, as a SMASH Virtual Expert, he’s giving back by helping other students maximize their funding opportunities. Zuriel’s story is a powerful reminder of the impact educational access can have, not only on individuals but on the communities they represent. This Giving Tuesday, let’s support more students like Zuriel in realizing their college dreams. On this Giving Tuesday, 12/3, every dollar you donate will be matched, creating double the opportunity for future STEM leaders.
