Welcome to the Duluth Superior Area Community Foundation Scholarship Center. The Community Foundation has become an excellent resource for students pursuing post secondary education. The Board of Trustees wishes to support students who demonstrate potential for success in higher education. Through scholarship programs, we can provide hope to individuals so that they can improve their lives and lives of their families in our community.

Currently the Community Foundation administers more than 35 scholarship funds. These scholarships have been established by individuals, businesses, and organizations wanting to help residents of northeastern Minnesota and northwestern Wisconsin achieve their educational goals. The Community Foundation also provides services for several affiliated trust scholarships.

Each scholarship fund has specific eligibility criteria that are defined by the donor when the fund is established. Some of these criteria are geographical area, financial need, academic record, recommendations, seriousness of purpose and school and community involvement. Community involvement opportunities may be found at the True North Volunteer Center Inc..
