POP Scholarship Program

Breaking the poverty cycle through education.

Education is a door to opportunity and stability. The People Obtaining Prosperity scholarship program – or POP for short – is a partnership between Center for People and Southeast Community College. Through POP, participants can attend SCC and earn their associate’s degree tuition-free! Center for People also provides some basic needs to remove barriers that might prevent people from pursuing their education. 

This program has helped hundreds of students earn their associate’s degrees and launch careers in healthcare, office administration, computer technology, and many other fields. These practical degrees lead to better employment, increased income, and economic independence – our ultimate goal for everyone who passes through our doors.
