Scholarship Funds

Providing the building blocks for our area includes investing in our community’s youth. When you establish a Scholarship Fund, you’re providing a chance of success to them as individuals and as future professionals in our community. 

 

These scholarships through the Kearney Area Community Foundation are established by generous donors, businesses, and organizations, like you, focused on assisting students in their pursuit of higher education. A scholarship fund, through KACF, connects local donors with local youth to help them achieve their educational goals. Scholarships can be awarded based on the student’s accomplishments, or financial needs, reflecting the scholarship donor’s belief in the impact an education can have in helping students attain their dreams.

​

Are you a local dream maker? Are you interested in creating a scholarship fund and investing in our community’s youth? The Kearney Area Community Foundation is here to help! Establishing a scholarship fund with KACF is an effective way to meet your charitable objectives as a local dreamer. Scholarship funds may vary in size and complexity, but one thing is in common throughout all funds, the charitable spirit and dedication to the education of local youth.

​
