The Viner Scholarship is a four-year scholarship to a Florida Public University or College to academically deserving High School students in Boca & Delray who have financial needs and are community service driven. This is a Last Dollar scholarship – students must access all other potential sources of financial aid first. The scholarship will cover tuition and room & board expenses that are not already covered by other financial aid, up to $10k per year. Applicants must be high school seniors, demonstrate financial need, and have a minimum GPA of 3.0. 100+ hours of community service are also required.
Since 2015, Eda & Cliff Viner Community Scholars Foundation, a 501(c)3, has been providing 4 year scholarships to public Florida Universities or Colleges to academically deserving High School students in South Palm Beach County who have financial needs and are community service driven. In addition to the 4 year scholarship, the foundation has established a mentoring program. All students are assigned a mentor to guide and support them through their college experience. In addition, a network of social service agencies and professional organizations are available to assist students with critical needs that may arise during their college years.
