Scholarship Initiatives

List of 12 items.

• Scholarship Endowment

  The All Saints Scholarship Endowment was established a number of years ago with the generous support of Walter and Sheila Umphrey.   In 2020, Sheila Umphrey gave another significant gift to the Scholarship Endowment, which increased the total to over $2.7 million. The purpose of this endowment is to provide tuition assistance for mission-appropriate students whose families are unable to afford the full cost of attending All Saints. From the Endowment’s interest and dividends we are able to provide financial assistance to deserving students each year.  Named Endowed Scholarships may be established by families or individuals with a minimum donation of $50,000 over three years.  Ten named scholarships have been created: The Raj Reddy Scholarship, The Parent Association Scholarship, The Low Family Scholarship, The Memorial Scholarship, The McAllen Family Scholarship Fund, The BMWL Scholarship, The Wilton and Effie Mae Hebert Foundation Scholarship, The Carla and Josh Allen, Sr. Scholarship, The Sheila Umphrey Scholarship Fund, and the Joy and Will Crenshaw Unconventional Learners Support Scholarship.

• Scholarships for Individuals

  We are also seeking donations for financial assistance to be used in the current school year.  Financial difficulties may arise during the year for families, and funds may be made available to assist with tuition in such situations.  Any size donation to the operating budget for financial assistance is greatly appreciated and granted thoughtfully to those with need.
