Application for the 2025 PHADA Scholarship Program is Now Open

Submissions are due to PHADA by January 24, 2025. 

In order to encourage academic excellence and community responsibility among high school students, PHADA has implemented a scholarship program for graduating seniors who are preparing to enter college. PHADA will award three scholarships to deserving youth currently residing in a PHADA member agency. 

These include the: 

• Stephen J. Bollinger Memorial Scholarship $10,000
• Civil Rights and Social Justice Scholarship $5,000
• Nan McKay Pathway to Achievement Scholarship $5,000

The scholarship fund will be administered by the PHADA Scholarship Committee. The money will go directly to the school that the recipient will be attending. The school will deposit the money into the student's account. The money may only be used to pay for tuition, books, and activities directly related to the student's education. If the student discontinues his or her education, the unused portion of the scholarship will be returned to PHADA.
