APIA Scholars

In honor of Indigenous People's Day, we are proud to shine a spotlight on our partner, Native Forward Scholars Fund. With a mission to empower Native American students, Native Forward has supported over 20,000 individuals from more than 500 Tribes across all 50 states. Through scholarships and essential services, they have made higher education accessible for undergraduate, graduate, and professional degree programs. Native Forward's impact is far-reaching, providing opportunities for the next generation of Native leaders to pursue their dreams and contribute to their communities. We are grateful for their dedication and commitment to creating a brighter future for American Indians and Alaska Natives seeking higher education.
