Every future starts today!

The Fieldstone Community Foundation INC. was created with the long-term mission to support future entrepreneurs by administering The Fieldstone Scholarship. Our work is informed by three foundational pillars:

1) Create a Culture of Philanthropy

2) Invest in our Future

3) Engage with Community

In support of all the creators and dreamers looking for their first next step, The Fieldstone Community Foundation INC. is proud to be accepting scholarship applications through June 15, 2024.

The lasting impact of a scholarship extends far beyond a single financial gift.

For some, it's confirmation of talent. For others, it's a nudge in the right direction. And for others still, it's a lifeline.
