Mission & Focus Areas
Mission: To lift individuals and strengthen communities by creating opportunities for growth through education, community service, and charitable giving.
Origin Story: The foundation was inspired by Brad and Andrea Hall's experiences as mission leaders in Mexico City from 2013 to 2016. This experience led to the creation of the foundation with an initial focus on international student scholarships, which has since expanded into a broader range of community-focused programs.
Primary Program Areas:
- Educational Scholarships: Providing scholarships to international students who have completed an LDS mission, supporting their pursuit of higher education through both on-campus and online programs
- Community Service: Encouraging employees to participate in meaningful service projects that improve their communities
- Charitable Giving: Partnering with organizations and supporting programs addressing critical needs including education, community improvement, hunger relief, and healthcare
Scholarship Support Details: For on-campus students, the foundation provides tuition, travel expenses, first month's rent, food stipends, cell phone support, ESL testing, and transcript translation services as needed. Online students receive support for tuition and course-related books.
