Army Scholarship Foundation

A nonprofit organization

$2,005 raised by 9 donors

20% complete

$10,000 Goal

Our program provides a way to say THANK YOU to our nation's military families, by helping them to achieve their educational dreams. Military families generally are low-income and do not have the opportunities that other families have. We have a 90%+ graduation rate for our scholarship recipients, which makes this a highly successful and impactful program. Our staff are all volunteers in order to maximize funds available for scholarships to students.

Our Needs

The Army Scholarship Foundation is in need of funds for scholarships for the family members of those who are currently serving or have served our great nation honorably. Army family members are severely hampered in terms of academic, financial, and extracurricular opportunities. Frequent moves between school systems with different standards and requirements, reduced income opportunities, frequent family separations, and the anxiety and stress of deployments all challenge Army family members who are pursuing their education. The need is great and the Army Scholarship Foundation is only able to make awards to less than 50% of deserving applicants due to lack of funds. The number of applications increases every year which is evidence of the financial challenges faced by army families. Please help us help them.

Mission

The mission of the Foundation is to provide college scholarships to the sons and daughters of those who have served our nation honorably as soldiers in the United States Army and to provide college scholarships to spouses of enlisted soldiers serving on active duty in the United States Army.

Needs

Every year we receive more applications from qualified and deserving military family members, so we are always in need of additional funds in the hope of providing an academic scholarship to every worthy applicant. Furthermore, during our summer application and grant cycle, we can always use volunteers to assist in reviewing applications and helping prepare our award notifications.

Equity Statement

The Army Scholarship Foundation provides academic scholarships to our US military family members regardless of race, creed, color, gender, or sexual or religions orientation.
