The Somerset Home Endowment Fund provides educational scholarships to youth who attend a post-secondary educational institution and have lived in one of our group homes.

We strongly believe education to be one of the most important building blocks of the foundation that we provide our youth as they rebuild their lives. Please consider a contribution of any amount to the Somerset Home Endowment Fund.

Support Education for Runaway, Homeless and Abused Youth

Two of our most valued programs are our Transitional Learning Center basic skills education program at Brahma House and our Pathways independent living/life skills education program. Please help us provide these important educational services by making a contribution of any amount.
