Help Palouse Pathways support and inspire rural and small town students on the Palouse and beyond.

Palouse Pathways relies on generous financial support from our friends, families and neighbors. Read on for many reasons to give. And happy holidays!

Since our very humble beginnings in 2011, Palouse Pathways has relied on donations from our community to survive and thrive. Our administrative expenses are very modest, since we don’t have an office and since almost all of our programs are staffed by volunteers. Almost all of the donations we receive are put directly toward student support and enrichment.

Here are some of the great things we we able to do with your help in 2023:

  • Served 70-80 students in the Palouse Pathways Scholars program.  We helped students attend enrichment opportunities around the country, at Yale, Tufts, Pratt Institute, Case Western, University of Chicago and more.  We helped them apply for college and make a successful transition.

  • Helped create a new program, Lapwai Wildcat Scholars, which serves 15-25 honor students at Lapwai Middle High School.  Over ninety percent of the students in the new program are enrolled members of the Nez Perce tribe. 

  • Offered a financial aid presentation by certified financial planner Ann Garcia, a nationally recognized expert and author of the new book, How to Pay for College.

  • Hosted in person visits by admissions representatives from Pomona, University of Chicago, Washington University in St. Louis and Yale. We also offered virtual visits with numerous other schools including Georgetown, MIT, Whitman, Occidental and more.

  • Continued to offer our great programs to our scholars and the community, including Path to College for Ninth Grade Families, Career Exploration, College Exploration and the Returning Student Forum.

  • Improved the college and career knowledge of our community via our monthly email newsletter and posts on Facebook and Instagram.

Your support of Palouse Pathways will allow us to continue offering these great programs and also help us plan to meet the needs of future students. And giving is easy!
