About
At Harmony Trust, we believe that financial hardship should never stand in the way of academic excellence.
Empowering Education: Harmony Trust’s Mission to Bridge the Financial Gap
Harmony Trust is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to dismantling the financial barriers that prevent academically gifted and determined students from accessing higher education. Founded on the belief that education is a fundamental right, not a privilege, we exist to ensure that no student is denied the opportunity to thrive.
Harmony Trust maintains minimal operating expenses, totaling approximately $14,500 annually, covering 501(c)(3) maintenance, accounting, audits, and legal compliance. Most operational costs, including time, supplies, equipment, and other essentials, are generously donated by board members, primarily Gregory Dumas, reflecting their commitment. Expenses exceeding $1,000 require board approval, ensuring responsible stewardship. Established by Mr. Dumas as a personal passion project, Harmony Trust aims to build an enduring legacy of educational empowerment.
Harmony Trust publicly discloses documents each year, primarily to maintain transparency and compliance with IRS regulations and donor expectations, such as

We recognize that the path to higher education is often blocked by soaring tuition costs, unaffordable learning materials, and limited support systems. At Harmony Trust, we bridge that gap through scholarships, mentorship, and innovative digital platforms that deliver high-quality educational resources directly to those in need.
