WHAT YOUR GIFT HELPS OFFSET

Every gift meets a real need.

Every gift helps a Smith & Moore scholar meet the real cost of college. A $1,000 scholarship can help offset required fees, books, transportation, and other education expenses—giving students more room to focus on learning and their future.

in-district

in-state

$24,743

Public four-year

At these statewide averages, a $1,000 Smith & Moore scholarship represents approximately 34% of annual public two-year tuition and required fees and 12% of annual public four-year in-state tuition and required fees.
