Increasing College Affordability for Middle-Income Students and Families
Recognizing the need to address the college affordability gap for middle-income students and families, the Rollins-Luetkemeyer Foundation, Inc., pledged $250,000 in matching funds to support Stevenson’s fundraising for the scholarship program. Stevenson met this initial goal and the Rollins-Luetkemeyer Scholars program is providing scholarships to 50 incoming students in Fall 2023. Each student will receive a $2,500 scholarship for each of four years for a total scholarship of $10,000.
We thank our many donors who supported this initiative!
Our Next Goal: 100 Scholarships
The Rollins-Luetkemeyer Foundation has generously pledged an additional match of $500,000, and Stevenson is fundraising to meet this match and provide scholarships for 100 new Stevenson students starting in Fall 2024. Students who have a high school GPA of 3.0 or above and whose families have income between $75,000 and $150,000 per year will be considered for the scholarship.
We are excited by this expanded opportunity to support educational opportunities for middle-income students and welcome the partnership of our alumni and friends in supporting the Rollins-Luetkemeyer Scholars program.
