Scholarships

Scholarships can be a great way to help pay for your education. They require some action on your part, usually an application or some other requirement, but are well worth the effort!

Scholarships range in amounts and how they are awarded, some are based on academic merit, others on financial need, and some have different stipulations that are spelled out in the scholarship application.

My grandfather taught me the benefits of hard work and putting your all into something that will benefit the community and make the world a better place. I feel like creating a scholarship like this is a step in that direction.”
