One of our biggest challenges is to ensure that men and women who seek a brighter future through a college education find an open door at Broward College.

The foundation provides scholarships as a key to opening that door of opportunity.

Scholarships give students the boost they need to overcome financial obstacles and achieve a college dream that might otherwise elude their grasp.
Scholarships give academically talented students with demonstrated financial need the chance to fulfill their potential.
Scholarships help other individuals receive the necessary training to start a new career or move forward in their current field

By investing in scholarships through the foundation, you can directly touch the life of someone whose only chance to fulfill academic and professional aspirations may be through the generosity of someone they've never met.

The foundation awards many types of scholarships through the charitable gifts of individuals, corporations and other foundations that believe that higher education should be accessible to all. Here are a few program-specific examples.
