"A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats"
Mission
Our Mission
The mission of Southern States Scholars is to help those who serve the underserved using the collective impact model in Louisiana and the southeastern part of the United States. We accomplish this by facilitating “Collective Impact” which commits cross sector partners to a common agenda to solve complex social problems such as STEM education, health and workforce development. These solutions are primarily fulfilled through private fund raising and local, state and federal grants.
