In 2016, Jordan Christian graduated from Cristo Rey High School in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and began studying civil engineering at Penn State Harrisburg with the help of a scholarship from his high school. Never forgetting those who had helped him succeed, a few years later, Christian made a commitment to pay it forward by creating a scholarship of his own.
"I wanted the scholarship recipient to be a future Penn Stater because I have a lot of love and passion for the school I go to," Christian said. "I love to promote Penn State to high school students whenever I get a chance to."
Having seen people around him be unable to afford to attend college is part of what inspired Jordan Christian to create his scholarship. He said that he hopes this scholarship will help motivate young people to strive for more.
