Meet Students Where They Are
We value organizations that already have trusted relationships and infrastructure within the communities they serve.
Donors & Partners
Opportunity Grows Through Community.
DNA began as a family-led mission. Its future can be built by a community that believes in what education makes possible.
For Donors
Help DNA Do More.
Every contribution expands the resources DNA can use to create tuition-based scholarship opportunities for deserving students.
We intentionally do not define our impact by a fixed number of scholarships or a fixed award amount. As support grows, so can the number and scale of the opportunities we create.
Our focus is on building a thoughtful, sustainable scholarship program centered on students and educational opportunity.
Support DNACommunity Partnerships
Local Knowledge. Shared Purpose.
DNA believes strong community partners can help us reach students thoughtfully and responsibly.
Identify Potential
Partners can help connect DNA with students demonstrating academic commitment, leadership, determination, and community involvement.
Keep Education at the Center
DNA's strong preference is to remit scholarship awards directly to the recipient's accredited educational institution whenever possible.
Our First Community Partnership
Little Village, Chicago
In 2026, DNA awarded its first four scholarships through a partnership with the Little Village Environmental Justice Organization (LVEJO) and its Youth Leadership Program.
LVEJO's established relationships and youth leadership infrastructure helped DNA connect with students already investing in their education and community.
We are grateful for partnerships that help turn DNA's mission into meaningful opportunity.
Partner With DNA

If your organization serves students in Chicago, Los Angeles, or another community aligned with DNA's mission, we'd welcome a conversation.
