We believe that no child should be denied the opportunity to learn a skill or access knowledge simply because they cannot afford it. Kids have interests, and are passionate about learning things they love. They should be able to study, and learn, and explore them. All education should be accessible to all - not just in traditional public schools, and not just for families that can afford supplemental programs, private lessons, tutoring, and coaching. Public schools are limited in terms of what they can offer, who they can serve, and how they can serve them. Many children in many schools do not have the opportunities that some children in other schools have, simply because of where they live. Even the best public schools cannot provide all the possible educational opportunities that children may seek. And not all families can afford to pay for the opportunities their children seek. So if we want all children to have access to all education, we have to find other ways to provide it. Our Mission Our mission is to help every child achieve their dreams by getting the education they seek. This means providing financial aid, tuition assistance, scholarships, grants, musical instruments, equipment, gear, school supplies, books, and other awards and services to low-income, economically-disadvantaged children and youth. Funds will be targeted for P/K-12 private education for opportunities such as piano lessons and other music lessons, music, theater, dance, and fine arts related education and instruction, equipment and supplies that children need in order to participate, such as a musical instrument, a piano keyboard, or sports gear, private tutoring or help with test-preparation. and arts-based and other alternative learning environments and general educational opportunities. We’re here for kids and families that are left out when it comes to the opportunities for private instruction, private lessons, personal tutoring, and other forms of private schooling and activities that wealthier families are able to take advantage of much more easily - but the less wealthy cannot. https://www.scholarshipsquirrel.org/donate daily 0.75 2025-11-12 https://www.scholarshipsquirrel.org/find-store-locations-and-hours daily 0.75 2025-11-12 https://www.scholarshipsquirrel.org/volunteer daily 0.75 2021-07-01 https://www.scholarshipsquirrel.org/rent-booth-spaces daily 0.75 2021-07-01 https://www.scholarshipsquirrel.org/apply-for-scholarship-award daily 0.75 2021-07-01 https://www.scholarshipsquirrel.org/scholarship-squirrel-community-partners daily 0.75 2025-11-12
