FAFSA Frenzy 2016
Four Rivers Healthy Community promoted the 2016 FAFSA Frenzy Challenge to boost college financial aid completion rates across our region. The initiative addressed one of the most commonly cited barriers to post-secondary education: college affordability.
FAFSA completion unlocks access to federal loans and grants, state scholarships, and community-based aid. This campaign brought that message — and hands-on help — directly to students and families in 11 schools.
