chrysalis scholars
we dont just fund education
we invest in potential
Education has the power to transform lives, strengthen families, and create opportunity for generations to come. Chrysalis Scholars supports young women as they take the next step toward higher education, career success, and lifelong independence.
Since 2014, Chrysalis has awarded scholarships to graduates of Chrysalis After-School and GirlPower programs, helping them pursue college, trade school, certification programs, and other postsecondary education opportunities.
why education matters
When we invest in a girl's education, we invest in her future.
Research consistently shows that continued education leads to greater economic mobility, increased earning potential, healthier families, stronger communities, and lasting generational impact.
At Chrysalis, we believe every young woman deserves the opportunity to pursue her goals with confidence and support.

"Chrysalis was a safe place where I felt care and respect, and later, as a GirlPower Peer Mentor, I tried to offer that same support to younger girls. I will always carry the knowledge that I can use my own experiences to help others."
Liberty
"GirlPower helped me keep my goals big and remember that my purpose is to help others. I gained confidence, insight, and a community of strong, resilient women that I will carry with me for the rest of my life."
Emily
