Students who have risen above the challenges of life situations by exiting foster care and entering into permanent guardianship after the age of 13 have the opportunity to apply for a scholarship through Umps Care, a nonprofit organization founded by Major League Baseball umpires.
This is an opportunity for qualifying students to receive up to $10,000 in scholarship money annually and $40,000 over four years as long as they meet the requirements to maintain the scholarship. This opportunity should be shared with any youth in your community who may qualify.
The window to apply for the 2025 scholarships is Feb. 1 - May 1. Click here for more information: https://umpscare.com/scholarship/all-star-college-scholarship/
