SCHOLARSHIP
Historically, LGBTQ+ students are left out of important programs that recognize their contributions to creating equitable and inclusive schools and larger community. Our scholarship program works to recognize the needs of intersectional community members who are part of the LGBTQ+ student community in Loudoun County with the goal of pursuing higher education.
PURPOSE
The Equality in Education Scholarships are awarded in June of each year . To date, over $33,000 in scholarships have been awarded. Each year, we set a goal to provide $5,000 in scholarships, based on need and scores. This scholarship is supported entirely by private donations from Loudoun residents and allies.
