Scholarships

Establishing a Scholarship

Providing scholarships for deserving students is one of the most generous acts an individual, family, business or organization can do. Generous donors have found that establishing a scholarship fund through the Foundation is a valuable and meaningful way to support the community, while providing the opportunity to pay tribute to a special person or keep the memory of a loved one alive. Once established, the Hilton Education Foundation promotes the scholarship, selects the recipient and manages contributions to the fund.
