Residential Scholarship Program
BHGH of Illinois is a privately funded, DCFS-licensed, residential scholarship program. We provide family-like group homes, college-prep education, and support through college graduation to motivated students from impoverished families, mostly from Chicago's South and West sides. We have a 40-year track record in Evanston with hundreds of successful outcomes. For our 24 high school Scholars, ages 12-18, we break down barriers to achievement by providing everything a fortunate family might offer: a safe, structured home and excellent schools, nightly meals around a family table, medical care and social-emotional support, tutoring, ACT prep, college application guidance, community service, and extracurricular activities. For our 24 Collegians, we provide financial aid navigation, a scholarship, dorm setup, and computer, internship access, career readiness, and ongoing support when they stumble. BHGH offers motivated kids an opportunity to see the world beyond their neighborhoods and build a future for themselves and their families through grit, hard work, and high-quality education. Our program works: 100% of our Scholars graduate high school and matriculate to college. 75% of our Scholars graduate with a college degree!GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2023 – Jun 30, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$1.7M
