Create a scholarship program you love.

Does this sound like you?

  • You inherited a scholarship program that feels more like a burden than a benefit.

  • It's a constant source of stress, with unhappy donors, frustrated staff, and concerns about its impact on students.

  • You dread donor inquiries and internal complaints.

  • The program is time-consuming, inefficient, and may not even be achieving its intended goals.

  • You feel pressure to present a positive image to your board and donors, even when the reality is far from ideal.

  • You long for a program that is efficient, impactful, and a source of pride.

  • You want to create a positive experience for everyone involved.

  • You believe in the power of scholarships to change lives, but you're struggling to make that a reality.

Instead, imagine that…

  • You can confidently communicate your impact to donors, translating it into increased revenue.

  • Your positive reputation grows, attracting new donors.

  • Your program is tied directly into your organization's overall mission, clearly furthering its overall impact.

  • You're free to focus on your foundation's other priorities, confident that your scholarship program is running smoothly without your constant attention.

  • Running your program is a breeze for your team–planned, predictable, and straightforward.

  • Your staff are free to focus on supporting students and creating more resources.

  • Your applicants have a clear path, knowing exactly what to expect.

  • Your recipients receive their funds reliably.
