AHEPA 29 Educational Foundation
The AHEPA 29 Scholarship Program was established to promote, encourage, induce and advance education at the college or university level. Although an applicant’s academic record is an important criterion in awarding scholarships; the scholarships are not a reward for past achievements. The purpose of the scholarships is to assist students to continue their education.
Since its formation in 1990, the AHEPA 29 Educational Foundation has awarded over $800,000 in scholarships.
