The EIF Foundation was formed for the purpose of providing incentives for low-income youth, in grades K-12, to stay in school and to ultimately attend college.

   Each year, at its annual Rising Stars banquet, EIF presents graduating seniors who participate in one of SAHA’s assisted housing programs with $1,500 college scholarships, which are renewable for up to five years.  Since the first scholarship banquet in 2000, EIF has awarded $252,000 to 168 students. 

   At the event, EIF also honors a former assisted-housing resident who has made a positive impact in the community.
