Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! ✨ From September 15th to October 15th, we honor and celebrate the vibrant cultures, rich histories, and countless contributions of Hispanic and Latinx communities. 🎉 At the Lenfest Scholars Foundation, we’re proud to recognize and uplift the voices and stories of our Hispanic and Latinx Scholars and Alum.
About us
Since 2002 the Lenfest College Scholarship Program (LCSP) has helped talented rural students from our partner high schools in south-central Pennsylvania to enroll and succeed in college. Our Scholars receive college scholarships, assistance in applying for college admission and financial aid, and advice and support throughout their college years. In 2014, the Lenfest Scholars Foundation (LSF) was created to administer the program. With the success of the LCSP in identifying outstanding Scholars and the Scholars’ success in gaining admission to excellent colleges, the mission of the program has broadened. This expanded mission includes more extensive advice and support through the time Scholars are in college; offering financial assistance to Scholars with internships, counseling Scholars about pre- and post-college plans; standardized test prep; and helping partner high schools improve their service to college-bound students. The foundation now works with 23 partner high schools and supports over 140 students currently in college, 50 new high school Scholars, each year, and over 300 alumni.

SEEF Spotlight 💫🌍 Journey Roseborough, a current 2022 Lenfest Scholar at FAMU, made the most of her SEEF Funds by studying abroad in Salamanca, Spain! Journey fully embraced the local culture and broadened her horizons. Here’s what she had to say about the experience: ‘While in Spain, I took 2 classes, Global Leadership and Medical Spanish. Global Leadership increased my cultural awareness and taught me new leadership styles and skills.’ —- If you are a current college Scholar interested in applying for SEEF funding check the Community Portal for the official application!
