Hello,
Michigan Lt. Gov. Garlin Gilchrist II joined the Michigan Department of Lifelong Education, Advancement, and Potential (MiLEAP) today to kick off “Reach for the Pie,” a statewide initiative and contest, in partnership with Hungry Howie’s and Michigan Credit Union League, encouraging students and parents to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to lower the cost of college and unlock valuable financial aid opportunities, such as the Michigan Achievement Scholarship.
The goal of the initiative is to encourage Michigan students to complete the FAFSA to increase access to student aid. By completing the FAFSA, class of 2024 students will be eligible to enter the contest for a chance to win free Hungry Howie’s pizza for a year. The prize will be awarded to 100 randomly selected students. The deadline to enter the contest is June 30, 2024. MiLEAP’s MI Student Aid will post the list of winners on reachforthepie.org on or after August 1, 2024.
We're asking for your help to share this initiative with your students, families and colleagues. You can find digital resources to spread the word in our Digital Toolkit.
Students and families can learn more at reachforthepie.org!
MI Student Aid offers a variety of FAFSA resources to help students and families complete the simplified FAFSA.
Thank you for supporting students and families with their FAFSA completion and for helping us spread the word about Reach for the Pie.
