Intro

Scholarships and education-related grantmaking for promising students of need are at the root of our work and have also led to our investment in new schools, capital improvements, workforce development programs, and in-depth collaborations. As we continue to look for additional ways to make a difference through educational philanthropy, we are encouraged by the progress being made in creating opportunities for social and economic mobility. In sharing these stories, we hope you will be, too.

The Howley Foundation sponsors scholarships to help all students with economic need, to receive the best education possible. Learn about support at the high school level and the college level.
