In 2017, we created the Ellevation Scholarship to support our mission of maximizing impact for English Learners. In the years since, we’ve awarded $20,000 to ten students across the country to help them pursue a higher education and reach their highest aspirations. 

We are now happy to announce that applications for the 2020 Ellevation Scholarship are open!

The Ellevation Scholarship awards five (5) $2,000 scholarships to deserving English Learner students, for a total of $10,000 in awards.
