Breaking the cycle of poverty by providing college scholarships, mentoring, and hope to financially and academically qualified students.

https://linktr.ee/TSICLakeSumter

Our local affiliate program operates under the Education Foundation of Lake County and was established in 1996. TSIC is a non-profit organization that provides a unique opportunity for deserving low-income students to escape the cycle of poverty through education. We offer our students college scholarships, caring volunteer mentors, and hope for a better life. Our services start with freshmen, continue through graduation and include their transition into college. Every fall, Take Stock in Children of Lake and Sumter Counties begins student recruitment. The number of scholarships available depends on previous year’s fundraising outcomes. Applications during the 2021-22 school year open in December and students can apply online. Applications are only open to current 9th grade students who meet the criteria and who believe they will benefit from the Take Stock in Children program.
