The PFLAG Scholarship program is a critical component of
our CultivatingRespect: Safe Schools for All Program, rewarding hard work
and leadership in the next generation. It is an opportunity to reach out to
young people and acknowledge their role in building our community. What better
way to show our commitment to students than to provide support for role models
and pioneers around the country that are making schools safer for all students?
PFLAG’s
local and national scholarships are one of the many ways PFLAG supports LGBT
and ally youth. Support the students in your community by encouraging them to
apply for the PFLAG Scholarship Program.
Many PFLAG chapters have scholarship programs as well. Students are eligible to receive scholarships from both their local chapter and the national office so encourage students you know to apply for both. Review the list of chapter scholarships.
