  Creating opportunities for success
  
  The Public Education Foundation administers a variety of scholarships to help students pursue higher educational goals. In many cases, the scholarships make college and university experience accessible to students who might not otherwise dream of a college education. The Public Education Foundation offers more than 120 different scholarship opportunities for Southern Nevada’s high school seniors to attend both in-state and out-of-state schools.
  
  Our scholarship donors are corporations, associations, organizations, foundations and individuals who want to create a brighter future by encouraging education. Each donor has the opportunity to determine the criteria of their scholarship and plays an active role in selecting the scholarship recipients. The Foundation provides professional assistance in establishing the scholarship funds including advertising and promotion, clerical support, and an awards recognition luncheon in May. The luncheon gives the donors and scholarship recipients the opportunity to meet if they haven’t already done so during the selection process.
  
  To date, the Foundation has awarded more than $6,000,000 to more than 2,800 students.
