Miami County Scholarships

Thanks to our generous donors, we awarded over $94,000 in scholarships last year! Scholarship dollars are varied and cover a wide range of criteria. Whether a graduating senior, current college student, or non-traditional student there are scholarships available.

MCCF Scholarship Applications

The Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship application is open August 3 – September 3, 2026.

Eligibility Snapshot: Open to graduating Indiana high school seniors who are current Miami County residents, have a 3.75+ GPA, and plan to attend a full-time, accredited Indiana college or university.

Preschool Scholarships

We partner with local preschools, schools, and other organizations to offer preschool scholarships for the children of Fulton, Miami, and Starke Counties.

The goal of the program is to make one year of preschool education affordable to every child in our counties by offering need-based scholarships.

“I’m impressed with how many students we help each year. The Community Foundation is an amazing asset for Miami County.”
