Change a Life with a Scholarship

Every year, thanks to the kindness of donors like you, the Foundation for Central Schools awards scholarships to deserving Central Unified students. By sponsoring your own endowed scholarship, you can create a lasting legacy that opens doors for generations to come.

Design a Scholarship that Matters

Imagine a scholarship that reflects your values and passions. You can specify the criteria – whether it’s for students from a particular school, pursuing a certain major, or overcoming unique challenges. With a minimum donation, you’ll establish an endowed fund that keeps giving year after year.

Endless Possibilities

Your scholarship will be more than just financial aid. It will be a vote of confidence, a beacon of hope, and a springboard to a brighter future. And because it’s endowed, it will continue to support students long after your initial gift.
