Agreed. Someone mentioned state scholarships that many of us didn't know 
about. I think a page on the c4l wiki for scholarship opportunities 
could be a win. People could add any that they hear about.

And I wince a bit at mentioning this, but with actual non-profit status, 
c4l might be more able to solicit donations. Or perhaps the group could 
find a non-profit partner that could help out in that regard?
