Open a scholarship fund

Empower the next generation by opening a scholarship fund with NVCF.

Many of our funds are memorial scholarships so family and friends can honor the legacy of a loved one. Scholarships make higher education accessible to students of specific schools, or all schools in our four-county footprint, and can be general scholarships or for specific areas of interest. It's your scholarship, so you decide.

Connect with us to create opportunities and shape brighter futures.
