Hopke Foundation Scholarship
Protecting and advocating for the LGBTQIA+ community is of vital importance, especially now as discrimination remains prevalent.
Homophobia and hatred take the lives of many people each year, either through hate crimes and acts of violence or through suicide due to mental health struggles. Ensuring the safety, health, and happiness of all members of the LGBTQIA+ community requires social support and encouragement.
This scholarship aims to assist LGBTQIA+ students through financial aid so they have all of the resources and community support they need to flourish.
Any high school senior in Michigan who identifies as LGBTQIA+ may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
