The Grand Rapids Community Foundation's Stephen Lankester Scholarship is offered to a student who is a Challenge Scholar at Union High School. Challenge Scholars should demonstrate financial need and have at least a GPA of a 2.0. Otherwise, this scholarship doesn't have many restrictions. Scholarship recipients are selected by the Grand Rapids Community Foundation (GRCF) and applicants follow the GRCF process. Dollar amounts will vary.
By connecting people, their passions and our region’s resources, Grand Rapids Community Foundation and our partners work toward an inclusive and equitable West Michigan. Over the last century, the Community Foundation has used the tools of philanthropy to respond to community needs. Today, to carry out our North Star and overcome racial, social and economic inequities, we must respond with intention and care. Our partners inspire, motivate and guide our work.
