Jerzee Foundation Scholarship
Having a college education is a privilege that many people don’t get the opportunity to experience.
For students from more modest financial backgrounds, the costs of tuition, books, other supplies, and living expenses can be too overwhelming, preventing many prospective students from enrolling despite their interest in higher education.
This scholarship seeks to support underserved students who are pursuing their dreams of higher education.
Any African American high school senior or undergraduate student with a minimum 2.5 GPA who is attending or will attend an HBCU may apply for this scholarship.
