The Ivy Foundation
The Ivy Foundation ("Foundation"), a 501(c)(3)
organization, was established in 1986 by the members of Alpha Kappa
Alpha Sorority, Incorporated, Xi Zeta Omega Chapter. The purpose of The
Ivy Foundation is to provide opportunities for young people to achieve
healthy and productive outcomes; support academic achievement and higher
education; promote community economic development; and encourage
volunteerism through community service. As such, the members of The Ivy
Foundation are pleased to invite high school seniors matriculating in
the District of Columbia public and charter school systems to apply
for one or more of the Foundation's annual scholarships.
Each year, The Ivy Foundation provides thousands of
dollars in scholarships to help make the academic dreams of students
from the District of Columbia a reality. In the Spring of
2016, The Ivy Foundation seeks to award four scholarships (in the amount
of at least $2,500.00 each) to four, deserving students. The
scholarships will be awarded in the Fall of 2016 and must be used for
academic expenses, including tuition, books, and course-related fees at
an accredited, four-year college or university in the 2016-2017 academic
year.
