Some Amarillo Residents Are Going To College For Free

Through the partnership of Amarillo College and Faith City Ministries, local Amarillo women are able to go to college for free. The college is called Success University. The name is perfect for its cause. This free opportunity is for homeless moms. It will help them to get the education needed to support their family without government assistance.

Many women struggle to earn minimum wage while trying to provide for their children, living paycheck to paycheck, making it very hard to live without extra financial help. But, through the courses provided at the Success University, these Amarillo, Texas women will be able to find better paying jobs.

The women attending Success University will begin with college preparatory classes that will help them get up to speed with college curriculum. In the future, Faith City Ministries is hoping to have men attend classes there also, but they are currently waiting on additional funding for the program.

Amarillo, Texas also has several other colleges and universities in the area, both private and public, offering an array of classes for everyone.
