Boston – City Kids, a nonprofit organization founded by City Realty Group of Boston, announced that pre-law and nursing students are the latest recipients of its City Kids Scholarships. The scholarships seek to empower underserved students from Boston and surrounding urban areas by providing financial assistance to help them pursue higher education.

The City Kids Scholarship, which awards $1,000 to 10 recipients each year, aims to alleviate financial burdens associated with tuition, books, and other educational expenses. The newest City Kids honorees are Jada Trench, a junior at Howard University studying pre-law, and Genesis Funes, a junior at Assumption University pursuing a degree in nursing.

“We are excited to see the progress and ambition of our scholarship recipients, and we are committed to helping them reach their full potential,” said City Realty Group managing partner, Stephen Whalen. “Jada and Genesis are exemplary students who represent the future of our community, and we’re proud to play a part in their educational journeys.”

The City Kids Scholarship is open to underserved students who are currently enrolled in an accredited college or university, or who are seniors in high school planning to attend college in the fall. Recipients are selected based on academic achievements and financial need.
