Overview
The Christian Missionary Scholarship Foundation Grant supports children of missionaries who have made financial sacrifices to serve the Lord. Founded in 1992, it aids over 100 missionary kids annually in pursuing undergraduate degrees at select Christian colleges. Scholarships are renewable for four years if students maintain full-time enrollment and good academic standing. This initiative not only helps alleviate financial burdens but also honors the commitment of missionary families in their educational pursuits.
Since 1992 the Christian Missionary Scholarship Foundation has helped thousands of missionary kids receive a quality Christian college education. Stanley and Harriet van Reken founded the nonprofit after members of their family returned to the mission field with no way of financing a college education for their children. The van Rekens' heart for the sacrifices missionary families make has helped grow a foundation that supports more than 100 missionary kids at six Christian colleges each year.
The Christian Missionary Scholarship Foundation helps missionary kids, whose parents have made personal and financial sacrifices to serve the Lord all over the world, afford a quality Christian college education.
