The Scholarship Plug

The Scholarship Plug is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization that is dedicated to bridging scholarship and financial aid opportunities through presentations, workshops, and support services to inspire students and families to “Get Paid to Go to College.” The Scholarship Plug, initially a nickname for its founder in 2008, has evolved into a vital community-driven initiative. Founded by Mrs. Shedly Casseus, a renowned College & Scholarship Advisor, the brand addresses the steep decline in undergraduate enrollment, particularly among first and second generation students with academic promise and/or “will”. This initiative aims to fill the gap and make a generational difference in its home state of Florida where college enrollment has dramatically decreased. The Scholarship Plug, provides a comprehensive community concierge college & scholarship planning success program, including workshops, mentorship, test prep, essay writing training, and a curated scholarship bulletin. This initiative has already impacted over 2,830 students, fostering collaboration with local businesses to offer scholarships. By offering scholarships and support, the Scholarship Plug catalyzes positive change, touching lives and creating a brighter future for individuals, businesses, and the community as a whole.
