Who we are:

The Villages Dollars for Scholars is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization affiliated with Scholarship America® since 2007. Our Mission is to award scholarships and provide academic support to local students. Students graduating from Wildwood Middle High School, The Villages High School and Leesburg High School are encouraged to apply for our scholarships. Our Vision is that every student will be able to further their education towards a career of their choosing.

We help students who plan to attend accredited Universities, State Colleges, Community Colleges, Trade, Vocational or Specialty Schools. We strive to help those financially needing assistance to achieve their goals.

 Since 2008, The Villages Dollars For Scholars has raised over $551,000 and awarded scholarships to 186 graduating seniors from our two local high schools.

 

Our Chapter is an all volunteer group. We are made up of dedicated and hardworking people wanting to improve young people's lives.

Without your support, donations and spreading the word about The Villages Dollars For Scholars,  we could not reach out and help these students.
