Crowdfunded Scholarships
Open a seat through the Scholarship Fund.
Students can invite friends and family to give to our crowdfunded Scholarship Fund. As support comes in, we reduce that student’s program fee by the amount they help raise, so cost doesn’t get the final word.
We’re also inviting friends of the college:
We’re also reaching out to friends of the college who care about this program. Their gifts go to the Jerusalem Light Scholarship Fund, and as resources are available we may award additional scholarship support to lower program fees. Awards aren’t guaranteed and are made at the discretion of Jerusalem Light, considering need, participation, and funds available.
How it works (simple)
1. Gifts are made to the Jerusalem Light Scholarship Fund.
2. We credit the student’s account with the amount they help raise.
3. We keep the program strong: classroom teaching, guided field days, and steady logistics.
