After awarding more than 160 scholarships worth $847,000 in student financial assistance last year, the Community Foundation of Southern Indiana (CFSI) is excited to announce the re-opening its scholarship program for the 2024-25 school year.

Beginning Monday, August 12, students throughout Clark, Floyd, and surrounding counties can begin applying for scholarships offered through the Community Foundation of Southern Indiana.

While many of these awards are available through local high schools and colleges, students may apply for specific scholarships directly through CFSI’s website – www.CFSouthernIndiana.com/scholarships – starting on Monday, August 12. The application portal will remain open until Monday, September 16.

“Scholarships established by our generous donors provide life-changing opportunities for students in Clark, Floyd, and surrounding counties each year,” said Linda Speed, President and CEO of the Community Foundation of Southern Indiana. “Our community has always believed in giving back, and we are thankful for those individuals, families, and businesses who have established scholarships that allow students to continue their education and pursue their future aspirations.”

The organization provides the structure and administrative oversight that allows people from across our community to establish scholarship funds that support their favorite college or university, as well as identify students who meet their own, unique criteria. Currently, the Foundation oversees 90 scholarships for students in Southern Indiana.
