Making Postsecondary Education Possible:
We Are Now Northeast Dollars for Scholars!


For 50 years, Dollars for Scholars has been helping students in communities across America pursue postsecondary education. From Maine to California, more than 40,000 dedicated volunteers devote their time and energy to raising funds, supporting students and making a real difference in the lives of those in their community. For all of those years, Dollars for Scholars has been active in our region of the country; to reflect the size, diversity and reach of our region, New England Dollars for Scholars is now Northeast Dollars for Scholars, serving chapters in New England and New York.

As a part of Scholarship America, the nation’s largest non-profit, private-sector scholarship organization, our job is to help our chapters, our volunteers and our students. We work with a variety of community programs to help students get ready for college; we help them get into college through our chapter scholarships—which, in our region, average over $1,500; we encourage our students to stay in school through 2nd, 3rd and 4th-year awards, and we keep track of students in the hope that they will support their local chapter after graduation.

The regional office of Northeast Dollars for Scholars serves the largest Dollars for Scholars region in the country. If you are not affiliated with a Dollars for Scholars chapter, or don't have one in your town, we would be delighted to help you start one, and if you would like to support Northeast Dollars for Scholars, visit the Donate page. The regional office is supported by contributions from individuals throughout New England and New York.
