    It's our Scholarship Info & Celebration Night! We celebrate our scholarship programs, learn about the available scholarships together, and talk about the process for applying. The application deadline is March 13th; more than $75,000 in scholarships will be awarded in total this year. We love being in-community with these sessions during this exciting time! ————— Scholarships are made possible through generous donations from Highlights Foundation supporters who believe in our mission: to positively impact children by amplifying the voices of storytellers who inform, educate, and inspire children to become their best selves. These include several organizations who have partnered with the Highlights Foundation to make scholarships available. Thank you for your support!
