Elizabeth Gilbert talks ScholarMatch on ‘Good Morning America’

ScholarMatch supporter and best-selling author Elizabeth Gilbert shared the story of her latest work, the revival cookbook At Home on the Range, on ABC’s Good Morning America today! Gilbert said how her great-grandmother would be proud that a collection of her recipes would benefit ScholarMatch. “Sixty-five years after she’s passed, she’s putting a bunch of kids through college,” Gilbert said.

ScholarMatch, as seen on …

We’re humbled by all the recent pieces about ScholarMatch. The San Francisco Chronicle‘s In The Mission blog picked up MissionLocal’s story on us. We were featured in Daily Candy and also on TrendCentral and Crowdsourcing.org. It’s great to see all the positive reception to what we do.

Coverage like this does more than just make us feel good: It enables more people to learn about the talented students in their community and creates more awareness of ScholarMatch. And those things lead to more support. We couldn’t provide any student resources — be those tuition funds from donors or our free workshops — without the generosity of people like you!
