Fund-A-Scholar is Breakthrough Atlanta’s annual fundraising event which raises critical funds for underserved students to attend our life-changing, year-round educational programs.

We are pleased to announce William Blair as the presenting sponsor of the 8th annual Fund-A-Scholar. This event is taking place Thursday, November 2, 2023 at the Foundry at Puritan Mill. Join us for a lively evening, hosted by this year’s Committee Chairs Stacey Beardsley and Lindsay Carlson Backscheider, and enjoy cocktails, dinner, an auction and an inspiring program.

Since holding our inaugural Fund-A-Scholar event in 2016, proceeds have helped equip hundreds of students with the tools and resources to succeed in high school, college and beyond.

For information on sponsorships, patron packages, or to join the Host Committee, please contact Amy Curtin at acurtin@breakthroughatlanta.org or 470-852-8901, ext. 102.
