NAACP Inspire Initiatives Scholarships and Grants

The NAACP offers a range of funding opportunities through their Inspire Initiatives program. For students, need-based and merit scholarships are offered to outstanding and qualified students pursuing undergraduate or graduate degrees. These scholarships range in dollar amounts, academic interests, and age eligibility, serving graduating high school seniors, current undergraduate or graduate scholars, and those early in their professional careers. For NAACP state conferences and units, grants are offered through signature programs focused on capacity-building. Additionally, state conferences and units needing fiscal sponsorship are required to submit a formal request for donation processing through the NAACP x Tide Action Fund application. The program aims to provide educational opportunities and organizational support across the NAACP network.
