Administering Scholarships to Deserving Students in Southwest Iowa
The Southwest Iowa Educational Foundation is a non-profit, 501C3 corporation founded in 1984 for the purpose of administering scholarships for contributing individuals, businesses, and organizations to the students of southwest Iowa. Our board of directors is comprised of members from the communities of southwest Iowa who serve without compensation. Because we are a 501-C3 organization, all contributions are tax deductible.
Our Purpose
Our organization takes great care to coordinate a fair and equitable selection process to ensure that each scholarship is awarded to a deserving student. The Foundation does not make multiple awards to the same student.
Our ultimate goal is to create an endowment to which benefactors may contribute and from which annual scholarships can be awarded.
All contributions to the Southwest Iowa Educational Foundation are tax deductible.
Mission Statement
To solicit, award and manage scholarships in order to provide the opportunity for interested Southwest Iowa students to pursue post secondary education.
