Overview
The Giving Branch Scholarship, funded by Flat Branch Mortgage, Inc. employees, aims to support working adults in pursuing higher education within the communities served by Flat Branch. This scholarship offers financial assistance ranging from $500 to $5,000, targeting individuals aged 25 and older who meet specific employment, residency, and academic criteria. By investing in education, the Giving Branch Foundation seeks to empower local residents and contribute positively to the community.
The Giving Branch is 100% funded by the Flat Branch Mortgage, Inc. employees. Our priority from the start was that the funds raised in the area go directly back into the community - a portion to local organizations, a portion to the United Way, and most importantly, the majority to individuals. It can be for anything, from helping with natural disaster recovery to unexpected hospital bills.
This scholarship will give financial aid to working adults looking to pursue a higher education in the communities that Flat Branch Home Loans serves.
The Giving Branch Scholarship recipient will be awarded between $500 and $5,000.
