First Generation Scholarships

FIRST GENERATION SCHOLARSHIPS CHANGE LIVES

As a valued member of the St. Petersburg College community, you know how transformative a college education can be. It opens doors, ignites passions, and sets the stage for a brighter future. For many students, however, the dream of attending college is filled with unique challenges, especially for those who are the first in their families to pursue higher education.

You have an opportunity to make a profound impact. The St. Petersburg College First Generation Scholarship Fund is dedicated to providing financial assistance to first-generation students—those who are blazing a trail for their families and communities by being the first to attend college. These students often face financial barriers that make achieving their educational dreams difficult, if not impossible, without support.

Your generous donation can help ensure that these determined and deserving students have the resources they need to succeed. By contributing to the First Generation Scholarship Fund, you are not only helping to alleviate the financial burden of tuition and books, but also investing in the future leaders of our society.

Here’s how your donation can make a difference:

• $100 can provide essential textbooks for a semester.
• $500 can cover the cost of a semester’s worth of supplies.
• $1,000 or more can provide a full scholarship covering tuition and fees for an entire semester.

Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a significant impact. Together, we can empower first-generation students to overcome financial obstacles and achieve their full potential.

Your support will not only change lives but also help build a stronger, more inclusive community.
