Expand the Impact: Help Us Give More Than 10 Scholarships This Year
Last year, we put out the call, and you showed up. Because of your generosity, we raised an extra $3,000—enough to fund three additional scholarships beyond the ten we had planned.
Let’s do it again.
The Rural Gone Urban Foundation Scholarship exists to support women from rural communities who are pursuing post-secondary education through college, trade school, or professional training programs. Whether they’re just getting started or continuing their education, these women embody grit, resilience, and ambition—but too often, financial barriers stand in their way.
That’s where we step in.
Every year, we award at least 10 scholarships at $1,000 each, and with your help, we can fund even more.
Here’s how you can help:
Donate online – Quick, easy, and secure. There’s a small processing fee, but every dollar goes directly to scholarships.
Mail a check – If that’s more your speed, we have a form ready for you.
The more we raise, the more scholarships we give. It’s that simple. Our admin fees? Already covered. If you believe in backing women with grit and ambition, this is your chance.
Act Now to Make a Difference
The deadline for scholarship applications is March 18, 2025, and we need your support to ensure we can award scholarships to as many deserving individuals as possible. Your generosity has the power to change lives and create opportunities for bright futures.
Thank you for your generosity and support.
