Perryman Family Foundation College Scholarships

Name: Perryman Family Foundation College Scholarships

Award Amount: Varies (multiple awards available)

Information And Eligibility:
The Perryman Family Foundation College Scholarships are a set of education awards offered through the Perryman Family Foundation to help students pursue post-secondary education with reduced financial barriers. The foundation is deeply committed to assisting students who demonstrate academic promise, leadership potential, community involvement, and a clear vision for their future academic and career goals. These scholarships are available to graduating high school seniors and current college students in designated service areas (often including South Carolina and surrounding regions), although specific geographic or residency requirements should be confirmed for each award cycle.

Award amounts vary each year depending on available funding and applicant strength, and multiple scholarships may be offered. Scholarship funds are intended to support critical educational expenses such as tuition, required academic fees, textbooks, supplies, and other essential costs that contribute to students’ academic success. By providing financial assistance, the Perryman Family Foundation aims to help recipients focus on their studies, reduce reliance on student loans, and participate more fully in educational and community opportunities.

Applicants are evaluated on a combination of academic performance, personal character, leadership experience, community service, and clarity of educational goals. Those who have demonstrated impactful involvement in school activities, volunteer work, or community leadership roles often stand out in the selection process. Personal essays that clearly relate the applicant’s motivations, aspirations, and the potential impact of the scholarship are equally important components of a strong application.

The Perryman Family Foundation College Scholarships also recognize the importance of long-term community investment. Many scholarship recipients go on to contribute to their communities through professional work, volunteer service, and civic engagement. As part of this mission, the foundation supports not only individual financial assistance but also encouragement of scholars’ broader educational and career development.
