Scholarships Purpose:
Helping our own in Fort Worth, helps our global community. When we fund meaningful, life-enriching experiences for young minds we help build a stronger community in Fort Worth and beyond.
These young, eager Fort Worthians eventually become eager professionals who, thanks to their expanded horizons, embody the characteristics of global citizens.
Professionals who are global citizens benefit employers by nurturing a globally-minded workforce.
While many Fort Worth students will leave their hometown to study elsewhere, and maybe even stay gone for a while; we all know it's only a matter of time before the call of Fort Worth becomes too loud to ignore.
Last, but certainly not of least importance, having students representing Fort Worth in foreign countries increases exposure to our wonderful city, the "Most Texas" place to visit!
