Quad Cities Community Foundation

The Quad Cities Community Foundation administers multiple scholarship funds, all started by donors who want to ensure students are able to continue their education at community colleges and four-year institutions. Over 60 scholarship applications are available through our website. When we include scholarships that are able to be renewed each year students are in school, these applications result in over $500,000 in scholarships being distributed by the Community Foundation every year to help students meet their higher education goals.

AVAILABLE SCHOLARSHIPS
