"One of the many things about our agency that I’m proud of is the fact that, for 26 consecutive years, even through a global pandemic, Seamen’s Society has awarded scholarships to college students in our foster care program. June 17th marked the return of our annual, in-person, scholarship awards ceremony and dinner. Privately funded by generous donors, we awarded 17 scholarships to 12 returning, and 5 first year, very inspiring college students. Thank you to our awesome donors and best wishes to our wonderful students!” - David Gaskin, President & CEO. To learn more about Seamen’s Society, or donate, please visit www.seamenssociety.org

Our Forward through Education Program provides free on-site educational support services for children in Kindergarten through grade twelve. Throughout the school year, we provide homework assistance and educational tutoring. We help students reach educational goals and support their learning in a way that encourages their development. For the past 3 years, we have recruited high school students to serve as tutors in our Program. Our children are thriving academically, thanks to the HS students. They are excellent role models for the children we serve. This year, we recruited students from St. Peter’s Boys High School, the Petrides School and Curtis High School. We thank them for their service!
