HopeGiver Scholarship – 2024 Winter Semester
The HopeGiver Scholarship was created to support single mothers pursuing their education. Sometimes life seems utterly impossible, yet when we have hope we have the strength to move forward. We believe in you.
Scholarships usually range from $500 – $1500 and applicants are encouraged to reapply even if they have received a previous award. Let us share our hope for your education, that your burdens are lifted, and trust to embrace your future.
May you feel the support of the HopeGiver Scholarship, and our confidence and hope in you!
To your future,
