We help students chase big goals.
Scholarships fund a bright future.
A college education can change a life, and the Foundation is proud to play a role in that journey. We award more than 60 scholarships annually to students striving to achieve their academic and career goals. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, these scholarships provide crucial financial support, easing the burden of tuition and opening doors to new opportunities. While some scholarships are designed for specific fields of study or student backgrounds, many are open to a wider range of applicants, ensuring that more students in our region have the chance to succeed.
