“For more than 60 years, we’ve had the honor of saluting thousands
of amazing teens for their dedication to their families, Club
and community; but most importantly, we’ve helped them
achieve both academic and career goals. The Reader’s Digest
Foundation believes in the power of learning and the ability
of education to close the gap between hope and opportunity for
children everywhere. We find it truly inspiring to watch these
young people realize their full potential as they begin the journey
to a promising future.”
Susan Fraysse Russ
Executive Director, Reader’s Digest Foundation
The Reader’s Digest Foundation generously
awards $1,000 scholarships to state level winners, $10,000 scholarships
to regional winners, and an additional scholarship of $15,000
to the national winner.
