Congratulations to Our 2022-2023 Scholarship Recipients!
The Georgia United Methodist Foundation would like to congratulate the 38 students who received United Methodist Dollars for Scholars scholarships for the 2022-2023 academic year! The Foundation partners with donors, local churches, participating United Methodist-related schools, and the United Methodist Higher Education Foundation to award matching UM Dollars for Scholars scholarships valued at up to $4,000 each year.
In addition to these UM Dollars for Scholars scholarships, the Foundation also manages endowments where the scholarship funds are sent directly to colleges, universities, and seminaries. Since 2011, the Foundation has awarded over 900 scholarships totaling nearly $800,000.
