RISE

Financial Literacy Scholarship is a scholarship award program for students living at or below the national poverty level. 

Financial Literacy  Scholarships are need-based scholarships that awards students $2,500 in scholarship dollars in exchange for completing Financial Literacy Training.  This scholarship was created on the premise that:

  • Families living at or below the national poverty level have increased need for understanding the basics of financial literacy
  • Earning a college degree is made more difficult by a lack of understanding about the college funding process.
  • Even a small scholarship applied to a student’s balance can make a difference.
  • Students who have financial literacy training are better equipped to strategically approach funding for college and to reimagine their lives beyond college.
