Ackerman Scholarship Fund for The Boys and Girls Club of Western Pennsylvania

The Ackerman Scholarship Fund of The Pittsburgh Foundation was created to provide an opportunity for members of the Boys & Girls Club of Western Pennsylvania, who could not otherwise afford it, to obtain a college education. This scholarship supports graduating high school seniors who have demonstrated commitment to and involvement in the Boys & Girls Club as well as community service. The program prioritizes students with financial need who plan to attend an accredited vocational or technical trade school or 2- or 4-year college or university. Previous recipients are encouraged to re-apply in consecutive years, making this a renewable opportunity for continuing education support.
