Additional Ways to Give
Tribute Gifts
Donors may contribute in honor or memory of a person or special occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries or graduations. Suggested giving levels range from $10 to $2,500. The Foundation promptly notifies honorees or their families of the tribute gift, which also is recognized in the Foundation’s semi-annual newsletter.
With a gift of $50 or more, donors may establish a tribute drawing account from which the donor may authorize tributes by telephone or email. Drawing accounts may be replenished as donors choose. Contact Us to learn more about opening a drawing account.
Matching Gifts
Many employers establish programs that match their employees’ contributions to specified nonprofit groups and charities. Donors can ask their employers if they match contributions to The Scholarship Foundation -- or if they will include The Scholarship Foundation among the organizations eligible for matching funds.
Ava’s Grace Scholarship
Ava’s Grace Scholarship Program was founded in March 2010, with the mission of providing scholarships for higher education and networking opportunities to young people who have, or have had, an incarcerated parent or primary care giver. Since that time Ava’s Grace has committed more than $800,000 to more than 40 students who are attending colleges and universities across the nation.
