Be A Barrier Breaker !
Your gift removes real barriers so adult learners can stay in class and keep moving forward.
Why the Barrier Breaker Fund matters?
Education changes lives—but barriers can stop progress fast. The Barrier Breaker Fund helps SBLC adult learners overcome everyday obstacles like transportation costs, testing fees, supplies, and unexpected life emergencies so they can stay focused and keep moving forward.
Your donation goes directly toward removing barriers the moment they come up—so learning doesn’t have to pause.
