Get to Know our Partners

We have recently partnered with the City of Auburn as a Gold Medal Champion! City employees have received information about the Alfond Grant as well as options to continue saving for a child or grandchild's education after high school. Those who choose to contribute to a NextGen 529 account using payroll deduction receive a contribution from the City of Auburn to their college savings account as part of their benefits package.

We are so thankful to the City of Auburn for taking this step and becoming a Gold Medal Champion! If you would like information on how your business or organization can become a part of our Alfond Grant Champions Circle, please reach out to kate@myalfondgrant.org.

Resources to Support Aspirations

The Alfond Scholarship Foundation knows how important it is to help young people learn about career and education pathways for their future.

We've recently developed a suite of aspirations programs to use with families with children in PreK-3rd grade as well as middle school. These tools help children explore their future in a fun and interactive way and are great activities to do together as a family!

For more information about these resources, please contact Kate Leveille at kate@myalfondgrant.org.

Ambassador Program

The Alfond Scholarship Foundations is once again offering our Alfond Grant Ambassador Program. Alfond Grant Ambassadors engage in outreach within their own communities, share information about the Alfond Grant, show families how to do things like check their grant value, verify contact information, and encouraging families to save for education after high school.

Alfond Grant Ambassadors receive training and technical support from ASF and are compensated for their time. This is a great way for folks to give back to their community!

If you would like additional information about the Alfond Grant Ambassadors Program, please reach out to us at kate@myalfondgrant.org.

Data and Research

The 2022 Kid's Count Data Book was recently released. This year’s publication continues to present national and state data across four domains — economic well-being, education, health and family and community — and ranks states in overall child well-being.

For children born in Maine after 2013, the $500 Alfond Grant can bring hope to families and help increase aspirations for education after high school.
