Equity For the Future Scholarship
The Equity for the Future Scholarship is established through Alliance for Greater Equity, a non-profit that helps advance equity and works to create a cohesive community where everyone has a sense of belonging. This scholarship will support students from the underrepresented or historically marginalized community who are pursuing a post-secondary education. In supporting these students, Alliance hopes to increase diversity among students entering post-secondary institutions and to promote equity in access to higher education.
