A Program to Nurture Potential
The Arizona Quest for Kids (AQFK) mission is simple: to provide support for college graduation to low-income students with academic potential.
Enrolled in the fifth grade, students are paired with a caring adult mentor who supports their academic and personal development. Career-focused enrichment opportunities and a comprehensive college guidance initiative are essential components of the program. AQFK also provides educational workshops and resource referrals to families as they support their child's pursuit of a college education
Students who maintain a 3.0 grade point average, stay drug and crime free, meet all program requirements and graduate from high school receive a scholarship up to the equivalent of four years' tuition at an Arizona university.
