Increase Access.
Break Barriers.

Many students could not access our Christ-centered, life-changing education without scholarship support.

When you give to our Scholarship Fund, you break down barriers for deserving students and empower them to “seek learning, even by study and also by faith.” (D&C 88:118)

Give to the Scholarship Fund

“Your generous donation will help provide deserving students with the opportunity to fulfill their divine capacity… sometimes in ways they didn’t even realize were possible.”

—Bonnie H. Cordon, President
