The Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties launched its annual Scholarship Program for local high school students. Now through February 3, students enrolling in colleges, universities, trade schools, or vocational programs are invited to apply.
In 2024, the Community Foundation awarded 117 need- and merit-based scholarships to Palm Beach and Martin County students, valued at more than $1.3 million. The Community Foundation has distributed nearly $18 million through 3,200 scholarships to deserving students since 1985. This year marks the fortieth anniversary of the Scholarship Program’s launch.
The application for this year’s Scholarship Program opened December 16 to those planning on enrolling in college in the summer and fall of 2024. Applications close on February 3, 2025. Scholarship interviews take place in March and April 2025. Award recipients will be notified in June, and funds will be distributed in July. Applicants must have a grade point average of 2.0 or higher, be a graduating high school student from Palm Beach or Martin County, demonstrate financial need and/or academic achievement, and be an incoming student at a college, university, or vocational/trade school. Some scholarships have additional criteria.
