ABOUT EARN TO LEARN FL

We Empower Low-to-Moderate Income Students to Successfully Complete College

Established in 2011, Earn to Learn FL is a successful matched savings financial assistance program. It combines student savings with financial assistance, personal finance training, and college success coaching to help low-to moderate-income and under-represented students obtain a college education and graduate career ready with little to no student loan debt.

Eligible students and their families deposit up to $500 into an Earn to Learn FL savings account each year, then receive an 8:1 match through combined university support and other public and philanthropic funding. This creates up to $4,500 per academic year in funds for tuition, books, fees and other approved educational related expenses.

And we support them with success coaching and mentorship. These Earn to Learn FL “pillars” comprise a groundbreaking, holistic approach to preparation for higher education with remarkable results.

FIND YOUR ROLE
Earn to Learn FL™ has blessed me so much, as my family faces a significant deal of financial burden and emotional stress, and the program has allowed me to become a first-generation college student.

Janet Del Valle

My dream job is to become a PA and provide my services to a low-income community like the one I grew up in. I want to help people who have a hard time receiving medical care due to financial hardships, legal residency concerns, or a language barrier.

Bianca Plata

I moved to Florida with barely enough money for my first semester of college. I didn’t know if I would have to take time off or take out loans. But thanks to Earn to Learn FL™, I’m on track to graduate on time and have zero debt.

Zoey Smith

Because of my family’s economic position, there has always been a lack of financial knowledge. I cannot thank this program enough for working with me and giving me the opportunity to become proficient in my financial skills.
