A Little About Us...

College costs are rising, government funds are shrinking, and many promising students cannot afford to realize their dreams of a post-secondary education. At a time when education should be a top priority for our country, access to education needs to be equally important.

B.E.S.T. Dollars for Scholars has accomplished a lot since 1987.. We now have an endowment of more than $1,000,000 funding scholarships for Bethel District graduates.

Over 100 of our collegiate partners match, in part or in total, Dollars for Scholars awards.

We receive generous regular donations from:

  • Bethel School District employees through the "Day's Pay" program
  • Graham Business Association Annual Scholarship Auction
  • Individuals, families, and business sponsored scholarships
  • Community donations for memorial scholarships
