The Lynwood Partners Educational Foundation (LPEF) believes that every student deserves the opportunity to reach their greatest potential in life. LPEF launched our College Pledge Program to remove barriers to student success and ensure that all our students transition into a two-year or four-year college or university. LPEF encourages businesses and community members to establish college scholarship awards through us.
LPEF has distributed close to $220,000 in the past few years in scholarships to graduating seniors on behalf of those entities. Scholarships can be specific to a field of study such as STEM or art, community service, or for academic achievements.
You can create a scholarship fund at LPEF to help graduating Lynwood Unified seniors achieve their highest academic and personal aspirations.
You can determine just how much you want LPEF to be involved. We can simply write checks to the students you select for the awards, or we can help you develop the criteria for awarding the scholarships, contact high school teachers, counselors, and principals for nominations, and identify the students.
