Aspiring Americans

We have GREAT NEWS for Aspiring Americans scholars!!! 2020 was a very challenging year for us to stay afloat and continue our scholarship program. The main funding sources, which came from local fundraising initiatives, were reduced to zero. An anonymous donor came forward and made a donation to fund scholarships for 10 Aspiring Americans students during the 2021-2022 school year.... We are deeply thankful for the support of our partners at Communities Foundation of Oklahoma (CFO) for their help facilitating this donation. Scholarship applications are now open. The system has changed, and now our scholars will be able to apply to not only the Aspire Higher scholarship but also to dozens of other scholarships available through the CFO site. Maximizing the opportunity to receive one or more scholarships. TO APPLY: visit www.cfok.org/apply and complete the 2021 Universal Scholarship Application answer each question carefully and honestly. The system will take it from there, and allow you to apply for the Aspiring Americans scholarship and other scholarships you could be eligible for. We will be posting additional instructions so check out our Facebook page. Message us if you have questions! Aspiring Americans is sustained by 100% volunteer work, community donations, and the support of Scissortail Community Development Corporation. For more info on how to become involved in our fundraising efforts call us at 405-360-1200 or email us at [email protected].
