We would like to thank the photographers

who help us capture these important

moments for our Scholars.

A huge thank you to:

Michelle Boucher, Tim Byrne,

Kim Gustafson, Nicholas LaJoie,

Nila Seddiqi, Khanh Vo, Dennis Welsh,

and Tate Yoder.

Thank you for your generous support of the Mitchell Institute. Last year, this organization distributed over $1 million in scholarships to more than 500 students throughout the state of Maine. Since the inception of the Mitchell Scholarship, nearly 2,900 students have received almost $16 million in assistance. These impressive numbers would not be possible without you, and these dollars have made it possible for so many deserving Mainers to pursue a college education.

We all want Maine students to fulfill their potential, and to close the gap between what is possible and what is attainable. I firmly believe that the best and most effective way to do this is by encouraging these young people through their secondary educations and beyond. Thisstarts with addressing these students’ financial needs, and not just through the scholarship dollars mentioned above.

We have found that the support that Mitchell Scholars need is notand cannot bemet by providing a check alone. Instead, the Mitchell Institute offers “more than a scholarship,” a suite of programs and additional resources to help students achieve success. This includes addressing financial needs by providing Fellowship Awards, so that students can pursue unpaid or underpaid internships or career-related exams. We head off financial emergencies through the Promise Fund, so that an unforeseen expense will not derail a student’s college persistence. We prioritize personal, professional, and leadership development, so that Mitchell Scholars and Alumni can become what they haveall the talent and ability to bethe future leaders of Maine.

Finally, the part of the Mitchell Institute that expands most beyond the scholarship is the dedicated and ever-growing community of Scholars, Alumni, and supporters like you. This Mitchell Institute Family has roots in every single community in Maine, and will continue to provide the necessary leg up to Scholars and Alumni to achieve great things. This community would not be possible without you. On behalf of these motivated and talented young people, thank you for your support.

In Memoriam Mitchell Scholarship

41%OF MITCHELL SCHOLARS MAJOR IN STEM FIELDS; 23% MAJOR IN HEALTH-RELATED FIELDS

66%OF MITCHELL SCHOLARS COME FROM FAMILIES WITH INCOMES BELOW THE STATE MEDIAN OF $68,277

44%OF MITCHELL SCHOLARS ARE FIRST-GENERATION COLLEGE STUDENTS, AND WILL BE THE FIRST IN THEIR FAMILIES TO COMPLETE A POST-SECONDARY DEGREE

The mission of the Mitchell Institute is to increase the likelihood that young people from every community in Maine will aspire to, pursue, and achieve a college education.

The Institute awards a $10,000 college scholarship to one graduating senior from every public high school in Maine each year. Mitchell Scholars are selected on the basis of financial need, community impact, and academic potential. Mitchell Scholars represent the best of their respective communities, and many cite the scholarship as helping them reach subsequent success.

Truly helping our Scholars succeed, however, requires more than a Scholarship. As you’ll see on the following pages, once Scholars are selected, the Mitchell Institute helps them achieve a college degree and find success in the world beyond with a wide range of personal and professional support programs. And our approach has proven effective: 85% of Mitchell Scholars graduate from college within six years, as opposed to the national average six-year graduation rate of 55%. Our Scholars go on to be gainfully employed in a field related to their interests and studies, and many of them choose to stay in Maine – or leave for a time and return.

90%OF MITCHELL SCHOLARS PLAN TO EITHER STAY IN MAINE AFTER COMPLETING THEIR POST-SECONDARY EDUCATIONS, OR TO LEAVE MAINE FOR A WHILE AND THEN RETURN

The 2018-2019 Annual Report is dedicated in loving memory to two wonderful Mitchell Scholars who were taken from us much too soon. Both young men were quintessential Mitchell Scholars and showed tremendous strength and grit in the face of devastating medical challenges. We hope all future Mitchell Scholars take inspiration from them.

The Mitchell Institute is pleased to award scholarships at each of the public

high schools across Maine, from Traip Academy in Kittery to Madawaska High

School on the Canadian border.

A long-standing tradition at the Mitchell Institute, new Scholars are welcomed into the Mitchell Institute Family each August at a brunch in Orono. In 2018, over 300 Scholars and their families attended, and heard directly from Senator Mitchell about why he started the Mitchell Institute. Mitchell Scholars Alex Stevens and Kim Donoghue also shared their advice for transitioning from high school to college, and the value of leaning on the Mitchell Institute Family for support and guidance. For many, the brunch is the first opportunity to learn about the path they are beginning as Mitchell Scholars.

Welcome Brunch

Our research has shown that small financial emergencies can present an enormous roadblock to graduation. Promise grants are made to Mitchell Scholars who have experienced unexpected financial setbacks that are hindering their ability to persist towards college graduation. Support is issued on a case-by-case basis and usually requires a meeting with a Mitchell Institute staff member to gain a holistic personal, academic, and financial understanding of the situation.

Promise Fund

Mitchell Institute Leadership ExperienceAn important aspect of being a Mitchell Scholar is becoming part of a supportive community. As busy college students,Mitchell Scholars don’t always have a chance to step away, reflect on their role in the world, and interact with peopleoutside their college community. In response, the Mitchell Institute developed a weekend-long leadership and professionaldevelopment event. MILE I takes place in Millinocket and in 2018 brought together 50 Mitchell Scholars from differentcolleges all over Maine and the Northeast. This intimate experiential learning program includes guided outdoor explorationactivities and a group community service project. Throughout MILE weekend, individual and group leadership, teambuilding, lively group dialogue around decisions, and awareness of the views of others all become vitally important – be itcanoeing down a river, reaching the summit of Mt. Katahdin, or discussing professional ethics over dinner. One of the goals of the weekend is leadership development, and 90% of attendees reported learning valuable lessons about leadership last year. Since 2007, MILE I has been fully funded by a single donor – Unum. We are deeply grateful to Unum and its leadership for assisting us in this important program.

I always feel like family around the Mitchell Institute."

Career Development DayLEVERAGING RESOURCESA constant refrain in our annual Scholar survey is “How do I find an internship?” To answer those kinds of questions, everyMarch, the Mitchell Institute Alumni Council organizes the Mitchell Institute Leadership Experience II (MILE II), generouslyhosted by Unum. This day-long professional development opportunity brings Mitchell Scholars and Alumni togetherwith business and community leaders from across Maine. Interactive sessions cover topics like expanding your network,deciding on career paths, and learning about professional opportunities in Maine.

MILE IINot every Mitchell Scholar will follow the same path to their post-college life. But many of them need a little financial support to gain the experience and skills they will need. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, the Mitchell Institute is able to provide stipends to Scholars to pursue unpaid internships, take test preparation classes, travel abroad, and more.In return for receiving these fellowships, Scholars commit to completing a community service project. In 2018, we awarded more than $100,000 to 114 Mitchell Scholars and Alumni.

Fellowship Awards

Fryeburg Academy, 2013 Colby College, 2017

MICHELLE BOUCHER

I received a Mitchell Fellowship to train teachers in Mozambique. I find it hard to come up with the words that describe what the experience was like, as it was something different than anything I've ever known, which was eye-opening and remarkable. We tailored our presentations to the diverse audiences we knew we would have, and we also engaged in dialogue and discussion with Mozambican teachers who have vastly different experiences than our own. Most of them were grateful for our experiences and even more grateful for the time to share theirs. I will carry so many of their thoughts, stories, and experiences with me

for a long, long time. I know it was truly once-in-a-lifetime, and I am so grateful for the fellowship that allowed me to go, but more importantly for the support I have received since being named a Mitchell Scholar in 2013. I have become a better person through the experiences I've been able to have because of the Mitchell Institute. Whether it's a few minute phone call with Meg or Kim, a coffee with Adam, a gala, or a trip to Africa, everything has made such a difference in my life. I can honestly say that I would notbe who I am today without the Mitchell Institute.
