"We established the JEQ Foundation in 2019 out of a shared belief that education is the most powerful tool to break cycles of poverty. Having grown up in Ghana and navigated the challenges of pursuing higher education, we know firsthand what a difference a laptop, financial support, and strong mentoring can make. We invite brilliant but needy students to apply and, one day, pay it forward."

"Receiving the Carlita Nickson STEM Scholarship did not just fund my Civil Engineering degree; it connected me with international mentors who guided me through graduation. The laptop was my greatest tool for coding and modeling classes."
