Every year, the nonprofit Point Foundation announces its new crop of scholars; the impressive, aspiring LGBTQ students of today and leaders of tomorrow. Point helps pay for the education of these students, people who include every age, race, home country, gender, and gender identity of our wonderfully vibrant community.
For 2018, Point is announcing 20 Point Scholars -- out of 2,100 applicants! -- and 25 recipients of Point's Community College Scholarship Program. Many of these strivers have backgrounds in LGBT advocacy and social justice, while some are just brilliant artists or scientists; some have also had to support themselves because of intolerance they faced from their families or communities. Meet all of the students on the next pages, with the Point Scholars in the front. Find out more about Point's scholarships -- and how to get involved with the cause -- here.
