Scholarships
Since 1984, the Community Foundation of Louisville has provided tens of millions of dollars in scholarships to support students with their educational goals. We assist donors in establishing scholarship funds so that a quality education can be available for everyone.
The Donna Scholarship was established by Sam and Pat Kinnaird in honor of Pat's sister, Donna McHugh. Donna attended college while working and raising three children. She received a bachelor's degree from the University of Louisville in 2002 and a master's degree from Loyola University in 2010. The Donna Scholarship Fund is designed to provide scholarship assistance to help defray the cost of tuition, books, and fees of single, working mothers residing in Metro Louisville who demonstrate financial need.
