Many Wyoming young people, despite above average intelligence, struggle in school. These young citizens have ability, but for some reason have not been able to get 'back up on the horse' after falling off.
The Craig and Susan Thomas Foundation is here to give these students 'a leg up' in life so that they can further their education and achieve amazing things.
This new educational foundation offers hope to Wyoming youth
by providing financial assistance to help make a student's dreams of becoming a productive, responsible and successful citizen, a reality.
Not Every Graduate Qualifies for Major Scholarships
The foundation recognizes that not every Wyoming young person qualifies for the major scholarships, such as the
Hathaway or other programs. A combination of many factors can prevent children from getting help to further their education. Some may be coming out of the juvenile justice system and others may have family and financial issues, which need special attention. But all deserve the chance to try again - to reach their true potential.
That's what the Craig and Susan Thomas Foundation is all about – a chance for all Wyoming young people to be their best.
Senator Thomas Inspired Young People
Long before being elected as Wyoming's Senator, Craig Thomas dedicated countless hours to our state's children. He personally inspired thousands of young people, urging them to be
the best they can be, whatever their circumstances.
Training and education make a difference – no matter who you are or where you are.
Craig believed that a fundamental part of his job was to speak directly and honestly to Wyoming's youth – urge them to succeed - to lead -- in whatever their vocations, from mechanics to marketing, 4-H to Cosmetology, welding to technology.
