Eligibility Requirements
Education Level:
High school senior, undergraduate, or trade school student
GPA:
3.0 GPA or higher
Background:
From a single-parent or blended-family home

Many parents could burst with pride about their kids at any moment, and most kids want to make their parents proud, even if they’re bashful or embarrassed to hear it.

Countless parents display incredible selflessness and perseverance when raising their children, meeting them with love and grace despite the challenges they may be facing. Single parents, for example, often may face more financial struggles than a dual-income family but often go above and beyond to provide for their children both financially and emotionally.

This scholarship seeks to support students who have been raised by parents who have made an impact on them and their ambitions.

Any high school senior, undergraduate, or trade school student who has at least a 3.0 GPA may apply for this scholarship if they were raised in a single-parent or blended-family home. 

To apply, tell us about your experience being raised by your parent(s) and how this has affected your life. Additionally, tell us how you will use your talents to help people in the future.

Selection Criteria:
Ambition, Drive, Impact
