Winnie MacIntyre

Founder & Executive Director

Winnie MacIntyre is passionate about making higher education more accessible and helping students pursue their academic dreams without financial barriers. Her commitment to educational equity stems from her own journey as an international student navigating the challenges of financing a college education in the United States.

Through determination and extensive research, Winnie discovered fully funded educational opportunities that changed the course of her life. She received full funding to complete her bachelor's degree at Jackson State University and later secured a comprehensive graduate assistantship at Kent State University to pursue her master's degree.

Her experience opened her eyes to the many students who have the potential to succeed in college but lack access to information about scholarships and other funding opportunities. Inspired to make that journey easier for others, Winnie founded EON to connect students with the information, resources, and support they need to pursue higher education.

Through EON's programs and initiatives, Winnie is committed to ensuring that more students can discover opportunities, overcome financial barriers, and build brighter futures through education. Her mission is simple: to help students access the opportunities they need to achieve their educational dreams, regardless of their financial circumstances.
