Whittier Fund - Scholarships
YOU fund scholarships that open doors and awaken dreams

Whittier Fund - Scholarships continue to be one of the most indispensable ways to open our transformational halls to more students.

Your contributions directly enhance the affordability and accessibility of a Whittier education. Our power lies in our inclusivity -- not our exclusivity -- and the scholarships you help fund open doors for students. In additions to creating opportunities, your donations ensure students can fully capitalize on these pathways that are newly within reach. You play a vital role in increasing their capacity to thrive in an academic environment that values personal growth, mentorship, and success.
