Penn State Chicago Chapter Scholarship

The Greater Chicago Chapter of the Penn State Alumni Association works to promote the University to alumni, students, and friends in the Chicago area by providing educational, social, service-oriented, and philanthropic opportunities to its members while upholding the institution's values.

The Greater Chicago Chapter awards scholarships totaling $10,000 to $15,000 each year to Penn State students from the Chicago area. Our chapter has been a leader in utilizing the University's GivingTuesday event for scholarship fundraising. In each of our four previous GivingTuesday campaigns, gifts have helped us raise over $6,000 for our scholarship endowment. Visit our Chapter website for statements from our previous winners.

This year, we're continuing the effort. Our goal is to raise another $5,000 for our scholarship endowment. Thank you for your support!
