Our Scholars


Our foundation started with one word: Yes. When a good friend told us about a young girl in New Orleans who needed a scholarship to complete her studies, we responded, “Yes.” We have since supported nine other young women in their educational pursuits, and we’re thrilled to have you read about them here.

The Soledad O’Brien + Brad Raymond Foundation recognizes what the word “Yes” can mean to young women in a world that always tells them “No” -- no to financial aid, no to scholarships, no to student loans. We hope you’ll join us in saying “Yes.”
