Community Scholarship Program
Since establishing our Community Scholarship Program in 1997, our generous scholarship donors have awarded nearly $40 million to more than 10,000 San Diego students who help fuel our local economy – making our program the largest private non-university scholarship provider in San Diego County.
Community Scholarship Program
The San Diego Foundation Common Scholarship Application provides students access to more than 100 scholarship opportunities with awards ranging from $1,000 to more than $5,000. Some scholarships can be renewed for multiple years to help offset the financial burden for a student’s entire undergraduate career.
