October 5th, 2026 marks our 15-Year Anniversary!
For 15 years, Go Forward Education Foundation has opened doors of opportunity for children through education. Guided by the belief that a child’s ZIP code should not determine the quality of their education, we have provided over 200 scholarships—and many opportunities of hope—to students and families seeking a brighter future.
To celebrate this milestone, our 15th Anniversary Fundraiser will be held entirely online. By reducing event expenses, we can direct more of your generosity toward scholarships and serve more students.
Our goal is to raise $150,000 between October 5 and November 5th—that is a BIG goal, but we can achieve it with your help!
Right now, your generosity goes further.
DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT
In the first 15 days:
- All gifts of $500 or more will be matched: a $500 gift becomes $1,000, a $1,000 gift becomes $2,000, and a $1,500 gift becomes $3,000, etc.
- Leave a Legacy: With every gift of $1,500 or more, a scholarship will be awarded in your name, creating a lasting connection between your generosity and a student’s future.
- Every Gift Matters: While matching eligibility begins at $500, gifts of every size are welcome and crucial to reaching our $150,000 goal before November 5th.
Why Your Support Matters:
Behind every scholarship is a student with dreams—and a family working to make those dreams possible.
Kahlil, entering his junior year at Archbishop Ryan High School, shared:
“I am so grateful to have been one of the lucky individuals to receive the Go Forward scholarship. It has provided me with the opportunity to further my education in a way that is affordable. I would like to personally thank all contributors who make it possible for this organization to help kids like me.”
His mother, LeZette, added:
“Winning the GFEF Scholarship means more to me and my family than financial support; it represents hope and opportunity for greater educational achievements for my son. The GFEF Scholarship is a reminder that dedication and hard work can lead to a bright future, and it also motivates Kahlil to continue striving for success despite challenges.”
Your generosity gives students opportunity, families hope, and young people confidence that others believe in their potential.
Will you help us make our greatest impact yet? Together we can get it done between October 5th and November 5th! Every gift, large or small, brings us closer to our goal and helps another student move toward a brighter future.
Give today. Double your impact. Help a student Go Forward.
Thank you for investing in our students and helping us continue this work for the next generation.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Dr. Gail R. Lewis
Founder & President

We ask that you join us in our mission to expand quality educational opportunities to children who otherwise would not be able to receive a quality education because of their ZIP code! Your support will help fund scholarships to students in grades K-12 who desire to attend a better school. Your donation can effectively be a lifeboat for families looking to escape failing schools. By granting scholarships to students, we increase the likelihood of their successful life outcomes.
