Our Mission

Blessons provides free mentorship and educational workshops for all women, in addition to scholarships to disadvantaged, low-income women who are 25 years or older and who have had their higher education interrupted due to challenging life lessons including; cancer, mental illness, physical or emotional abuse, or who are first generation female immigrants.

Who We Are

Why Women? Blessons mission is meant for those women who have a vision to succeed in spite of obstacles. The most important aspect for many women is their family. This is especially true if they happen to be older women. For women who have taken time to raise a family either before they entered college or sometime after they did, or experiencing challenging life lessons, returning to school to better themselves and their job prospects can become expensive in a hurry. One of the main reasons why many non-traditional female students cannot finish is due to experiencing challenging life lessons including financial hardship. Scholarships for returning students are in need and not many exist.
