Bhargava Family Scholarship

This scholarship, established by the Bhargava family, recognizes graduating high school seniors who demonstrate high academic performance as well as involvement in school, community and work activities.

Description

Kalamazoo Community Foundation (KZCF) understands that education is a key pathway to success. We also understand that pursuing higher-level education can be one of the most expensive costs our community members take on. As part of our vision of Kalamazoo County being the most equitable place to live, KZCF remains committed to supporting our students as they work to accomplish their educational goals.

We offer more than 60 scholarships and grants to today's students, including those in undergraduate or graduate school, or career training! In addition to our numerous scholarships, we have made the application process very easy. By completing one online application, students can easily be matched with our scholarships and education grants.*
