Our Program

    At the Native American Bear Foundation, we believe that education is a fundamental right and that it should be accessible to all students, regardless of their financial situation. That's why we have established a scholarship program that aims to support Native American students in pursuing their academic goals. We offer small scholarships to graduating high school students who have demonstrated academic excellence, leadership, and community involvement. Our goal is to help these students achieve their full potential and become the leaders of tomorrow.
  • Our scholarship program is open to all Native American students who have graduated from high school and are planning to enroll in a college or university. To be eligible, students must have a minimum GPA of 3.0 and demonstrate a commitment to their community through extracurricular activities, volunteer work, or other forms of community involvement. The application deadline for our scholarship program is March 7th, and the winners will be announced in August.
