On behalf of Barry University and its CARE Center, we THANK First Citizens Bank for the gift of $500. The financial support will allow the CARE Center and its programs together with First Citizens Bank make our communities stronger.
The intent of the CHAMPS-College Reach-Out Program under the CARE Center's Research Initiative is to improve the college access and completion for low-income and educationally disadvantaged students in grades 6-12. CHAMPS-CROP provides academic support, social-emotional learning, personal counseling, financial literacy, civic engagement, college and career readiness activities to address the barriers that affect student personal and academic success.
