Help a student with demonstrated financial need participate in a pre-college program that can shape their academic path and future opportunities.

Every year, Summer Springboard receives a significant number of requests for financial aid from families to be able to afford to attend a Summer Springboard Program.

While Summer Springboard does offer partial need-based scholarships to as many students as we possibly can, and is proud to partner with many non-profit organizations who support their own students’ participation in our programs, the organization’s resources can only stretch so far.

This scholarship fund, supported by the Summer Springboard Foundation, seeks to offer partial and full-ride scholarships to students of diverse backgrounds with demonstrated financial need.

Students who are interested will apply for a need-based scholarship. The application includes submitting financial documentation as well as completing a series of additional essays.

Donations cannot be designated for specific individuals. However, while donated funds will be awarded at the discretion of the Summer Springboard Foundation team, donors may stipulate specific selection criteria (e.g., demonstrated academic performance, academic field of interest, geographic origin or school district, etc.). 

If you are looking to make a tremendous, direct impact in the life of a high school student who wants to stretch their wings and have the kind of experience that can change the course of their lives, any donation you make toward this fund will make a meaningful difference!
