Overview
The BASIC Fund (Bay Area Scholarships for Inner-city Children) provides scholarships to low-income families in the Bay Area to help them send their children to private schools of their choice. The program focuses on new students entering private school at any grade level (K-8). Scholarships are awarded based on financial need and are intended to be multi-year commitments as long as the family remains eligible. High school students (9-12) are generally only eligible if they were previous BASIC Fund recipients.
