Vision of the Scholarship Foundation

We seek to become a strong biblical-based scholarship foundation for young people at New Progressive Missionary Baptist Church who are seeking financial support for higher education and spiritual support for Christian growth.
Through a variety of resources, the Foundation will assist students and parents in developing interviewing skills, goal setting, parenting skills, writing skills, biblical guidelines on Christian character, learning and applying scriptures, and most importantly ensuring that all applicants have accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
