The Mountwest Foundation raises money year-round to find scholarships for the students in our community. This Giving Tuesday, our goal is to raise $10,000, which will fund 10 scholarships. Our Scholarships help pay tuition, books, supplies, and much more.

Your Support Matters!

For many students, scholarships provide more than financial support; they offer encouragement and reassurance that someone believes in their potential. By alleviating economic stress, scholarships allow students to focus more fully on their education. This support not only empowers students to stay on track academically but also enhances their overall experience.

Student Testimonials

The support I received from the Mountwest Foundation changed my life! Mountwest Foundation made sure I had scholarship funding to continue my education. Now, I recruit students for Mountwest Community & Technical College, to give back what I was given when I was student.

These grants are something I can show my kids and be proud of, so they can say mommy did it. It’s something to motivate them and make them proud of me. Once again, I just want to say thank you for the bottom of my heart. This is truly changing a family’s life and generations to come.

Courtney Sturgill

Going to college means the world to me, not only am I obtaining the education I desire, but I am meeting like-minded individuals who also want to put the work in for a better tomorrow. I cannot thank you enough for giving me this award. Any help that I receive going to college is opening the doors to my dreams and future aspirations to become true. The help that Mountwest has given me will not be forgotten.

School is anything but cheap, especially for us Appalachian students, so having scholarship opportunities is helping alleviate the financial burden that has kept many Appalachian students from pursuing higher education…Thank you for helping Appalachian students succeed.

This scholarship award will continue to financially support my educational goals as I continue pursuing my degree in Business Administration. You see, my college journey began over twenty years ago and was cut short due to the fact I did not have the financial or emotional support to complete my college education then. Your generous gift will alleviate my stress regarding the financial burdens and allow me to continue focusing on my studies.

So, I hope you truly understand how eternally grateful I am for your gift.

Jessica Martin

I am truly grateful for this scholarship. This scholarship allows me to work less and focus on my studies so I can hopefully maintain my 4.0 GPA. I hope to one day be able to help students achieve their goals, such as you have helped me.
