Scholarships
Through the generosity of local individuals, organizations, and businesses, Golden Eagle Education Foundation’s Scholarship program provides college funding for Fountain Hills High School graduating seniors. Recognition of past achievements, planned future accomplishments, and the alleviation of financial barriers are some of the criteria for awarding scholarships.
Past recipients have received scholarships for leadership, academics, civic dedication, practical arts experience, athletic achievement, and specific degree plans including aviation, education, engineering, sciences, medical fields, and more.
Any Fountain Hills High School or Fountain Hills homeschool senior eligible for graduation is welcome to apply for a scholarship.
The Scholarship Application is available in February each year and closes in March.

This first semester of college has been a lot less stressful and more rewarding for me with your help in financing some of my education.
Because of your generosity, I have been able to put more time to school and less to work..
