While annual reports for most charitable foundations often focus strictly on financial information, the Imagine America Foundation has more to offer in its yearly review.
The Foundation has released its Annual Report, which provides information on the organization’s scholarship programs and numerous other charitable involvements during 2006. The organization, originally founded as a research and scholarship provider, has become an innovative resource for career college professionals and learning institutions.
Nearly $7 million in scholarship and award support was provided through IAF to career college students in 2006. Funds are primarily distributed through four scholarship and award programs sponsored by the Foundation: Imagine America (for graduating high school seniors), Imagine America Promise (for adult students), the Military Award Program (for active duty, reservist or honorably discharged U.S. military veterans), and the new Imagine America Online scholarship (for online/distance learners).
