Our Mission
Ever forward. Always ahead.
We help young people become the best version of themselves.
The Ever Forward Foundation was founded on the belief that building successful community and citizen leaders starts at a young age. Part of crafting successful adults begins with providing children and young people with the necessary support, confidence and opportunity to find their passion and chase their dreams, no matter the size or shape.
Helping young people capitalize on the opportunity to learn invaluable life skills such as sacrifice, self-reliance, resiliency and accountability are cornerstones of crafting the next generation of leaders in St. Louis and beyond. Ever Forward hopes that its efforts and funds can help drive those that it supports to pursue their dreams and challenge themselves in ways that would not be possible but for the support of the Foundation.
Time to take action.
Today, the Foundation helps grant families financial support for a range of worthwhile needs. Whether academic, athletic, extracurricular, health or arts-related, Ever Forward has a range of grant opportunities to help families and students in need. The Foundation offers families and students with three levels of support for grant recipients:
Grant Levels
-
Forward Level:
Grants of up to $1,000 for individual undertakings and complimentary support needs.
-
Ever Forward Level:
Grants of up to $10,000 to help with major undertakings such as full or partial tuition support or other large-scale commitments.
-
Forever Forward Level:
Grants of up to $25,000 for unique circumstances where the Ever Forward Foundation believes it can truly impact a young person’s life by supporting an equally compelling opportunity such as higher education or medical expense.
