About Me
Scholarship America has been developed to mobilize America, through scholarships and educational support - making postsecondary education possible for all students.
In 1958, an Optometrist in Fall River, Mass., had a simple but profound ideaóif everyone in his community gave just a dollar to an educational fund, it would be enough to help nearly every student in the community who wanted to attend college. Dr. Irving Fradkin called his plan "Dollars for Scholars," and it has expanded into what, today, is the nation's largest non-profit, private-sector scholarship and educational support organization.
Since its founding, Scholarship America has distributed more than $1.5 billion to more than 1.5 million students across the country through various programs including Dollars for ScholarsÆ and Scholarship Management ServicesÆ. As we enter our second half-century of helping students, we invite you to come and be a part of our mission by donating or volunteering today.
