The Alexander and Maude Hadden Scholarship is awarded to exceptionally worthy, financially needy, secondary school seniors for their undergraduate college education.

The Scholarship Committee selects the recipients after carefully evaluating character, scholastic records, financial need, extra-curricular activities and employment experience. No scholarship is given to a student unless his or her college has agreed to refrain from reducing its own scholarship grant at the expense of the Youth Foundation’s award.
Youth Foundation encourages young people to establish permanent attitudes of self-reliance, confidence, self-discipline, responsibility, volunteerism, and exemplary character thereby benefiting their own lives, and more importantly, the lives of others.

You can download an application on at their website.

Eligibility:

• High school seniors,
• United States citizens
• Seeking higher education at accredited four-year United States colleges or universities. Must show a 3.5+ or better grade average and should document financial need.

Applicants are notified of their scholarship awards in late May, or early June.
