Institute for Cultural Initiatives Scholarship Grant

The Institute for Cultural Initiatives Scholarship, managed by the Oregon Community Foundation, supports bi-lingual (Spanish/English) Latino students attending Oregon community colleges. This scholarship is designed for residents and graduates of Oregon high schools who enroll at least half-time. Award amounts vary, and prior recipients must reapply to renew their scholarships for up to four years. This initiative underscores the importance of education as a vital investment in Oregon's future.

OCF manages one of the largest scholarship programs of its kind in the country, awarding thousands of scholarships each year.
Our scholarships support a wide variety of majors, interests and passions. We have scholarships for graduates of specific high schools, current college students and graduate students. Other scholarships support students returning to their educations after time away, for workforce retraining or career advancement.
Underlying every OCF scholarship fund is the belief that post-secondary education is a vital investment in Oregon’s future.
