Wings to Fly Secondary School Scholarship Program

About the Program

The Wings to Fly Secondary School Scholarship Program was created to empower bright, motivated students from lowincome families to reach their full academic potential. By covering tuition, textbooks, uniforms and other essential school expenses, the program removes financial barriers that often prevent talented youths from completing secondary education.

Launched in 2015, Wings to Fly has partnered with public and private secondary schools across the country. Over 5,000 scholars have graduated, many of whom have gone on to win national awards, secure university placements, and become community leaders.
