This program is inactive or past the deadline.

Description

The mission of Bootstraps, in partnership with the community, is to support the continuing education of promising students in the mountain area, with an emphasis on financial need.

Each year, approximately 60 scholarships and loans are awarded, with all funds donated by businesses and individuals in the Evergreen/Conifer community. The donor of an award specifies the criteria.

Most awards require the recipient to have financial need as calculated by the FAFSA. ***Financial need means your college costs will exceed your EFC plus any other scholarships.***

YOUR AND YOUR PARENTS' FINANCIAL INFORMATION WILL NEVER BE SHARED WITH ANYONE OUTSIDE OF THE BOOTSTRAPS ORGANIZATION. ALL BOARD MEMBERS AND EVALUATORS SIGN A CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT BEFORE BEING GIVEN ACCESS TO APPLICANT MATERIALS.
