of college students who face an unplanned pregnancy do not complete their education because they lack the resources to be both a student and a parent.
The impact of an incomplete education is felt over multiple generations and across communities.
Student-Moms who finish their degrees earn on average $1.2 million dollars more over their lifetimes than those who drop out.
Baby Steps helps Student-Moms get to graduation.
Everyday, there are college students who discover they are facing an unplanned pregnancy, and their universities often lack the resources to support them.
Colleges across the country are contacting Baby Steps to learn how best to serve these Student-Moms.
The Next Step:
In response, Baby Steps made the decision to link arms with institutions and establish Hubs throughout the region and nation.
The Foundation
• Co-Founders: Matt & Michelle Schultz
• Baby Steps opens the doors to our first Hub in the Fall of 2017.
• Current Hubs:
- Auburn University
- The University of Alabama
• Number of Inquiring Locations: 56
“My ultimate goal after covering operational expenses is to provide a level of matching funds to local Hub planters to accelerate the formation of Baby Steps on their campuses. The opportunity to make a generational impact in these students’ lives is immense.”
