Scholarships for Foster Children | The Jason Hayes Foundation Providing support to enrich the lives of children and young adults who have experienced a less than ideal start to life. About the Foundation Established in 2005 the Jason Hayes Foundation works to support children and young adults who have suffered from early childhood trauma including mental physical and emotional abuse. The Foundation exists primarily to provide scholarships to children who will benefit greatly from attending a specialized camp or program to help them work through the after effects of this trauma and those attending a two or four year college or university. We also provide grants to camps and programs who work with these children and provide education for those who support them.
