COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIPS
ANNUAL SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
Mike Evans Family Foundation works to award annual college scholarships to graduating high school seniors who are hardworking and well-rounded but who may not have the opportunity to attend college because of financial reasons. Applications open each spring.
Mike Evans and his wife, Ashli, believe that by helping students get a college education, they can make a real difference in their lives.
To Sponsor a Scholar, join our monthly donation program. We couldn’t give deserving students college scholarships without YOUR help! Whether you can give $25, $13, or $5 each month, it truly makes a difference.
