Scholarships are used to subsidize the costs of tuition, school books, fees, on-campus room and board, approved educational tutoring, and other approved educational expenses that a student’s school may deem appropriate.
The Children’s Fund Scholarship program is for dependents of service members enrolled in grades Kindergarten – 12. Funds may be used for approved/accredited private school tuition, IRS approved educational tutoring from an approved tutoring company, approved/accredited homeschool curriculum, required books and required school uniforms.
The Higher Education Scholarship program is for students who will be entering, or are already attending a 2- or 4-year college, university, technical school, or accredited certificate program. Applicants must be 24 years old or younger and a dependent of the service member. If the applicant is the spouse of a service member, there are no age requirements/limitations but must currently be married to service member or not remarried if widowed.
Scholarships are awarded up to $5,000 for both the Children’s Fund and Higher Education scholarships. Award amount is based on the “unmet need” calculated on the Financial Need page of the application.
