“In 2015, I had the serendipitous opportunity to connect with the George Snow Scholarship Fund as a Boca’s Ballroom Battle Dancer. Since then, I have personally been a dedicated supporter of their mission. Over the past decade, our business collaboration as nonprofit organizations has evolved through various initiatives that underscore our shared commitment to community service.” Said Peg Anderson, President of the Mizner Park Cultural Arts Association & The Studio at Mizner Park “The Studio and the George Snow Scholarship Fund have become business associates, neighbors, and friends. This collaborative spirit is exemplified by the new office space we’ve created to expand and enhance services for Snow Scholars. We welcome the opportunity to share the path forward and continue working together for the greater good of our community.” Anderson Continued.

“This expansion is more than just adding office space. It’s a testament to the 43-year journey we’ve been on as an organization and community asset. What began as a tribute to my father—awarding 3 local students a total of $8,000—has grown into a life-changing mission with a profound generational impact. Having supported thousands of Snow Scholars since 1982, I have witnessed this firsthand. With our most recent award cycle welcoming 375 local students to the Snow Family with over $5 million in scholarships and Scholar Support Services, our growth has been extraordinary. To continue providing the level of support our Snow Scholars deserve, our team and offices must expand alongside them. I am deeply grateful for our partnership with Peg Anderson, the Mizner Park Cultural Arts Association, and The Studio at Mizner Park for making this expansion possible. Together, we are building a future where even more local students can pursue higher education and make their dreams come true.” Said Tim Snow, President of the George Snow Scholarship Fund.
To achieve this expansion, the George Snow Scholarship Fund is launching a $500,000 capital campaign, offering donors a unique opportunity to leave a lasting legacy through naming opportunities via one-time gifts or pledged gifts. Donors at leadership levels will receive special recognition, including naming rights for individual offices, workspaces, and common areas.
