Partner with us to make a difference

 

We offer opportunities to change the lives of deserving Florida students through a variety of scholarship programs. The majority of our programs double the value of scholarship funds by receiving a dollar-for-dollar match from the Foundation, allowing you to have a greater impact on your community.

For scholarship programs that are not eligible for matching funds, we also offer the opportunity to build private scholarships and choose your own scholarship criteria, while enjoying all of the benefits offered through Prepaid Plans.

If you are a student interested in finding out more about our programs, please check our Student Resources section.
