Scholarships For Habitat Families
Empowering Families through Education
Established in 2009, Indian River Habitat’s Scholarship Program for Habitat homeowners and their children provides financial assistance for college, post-secondary workforce education, as well as assistance with fees associated with after school and/or summer care. For many, the support provided through this program has helped families realize the dream of a post-secondary education, with graduates oftentimes becoming the first generation to graduate from college.
