Foundation expands scholarship program

| January 14, 2025 1:00 AM

The Call to Action Foundation has expanded its scholarship program to serve students in additional states in 2025, including Idaho.

The need-based scholarship covers the full cost of attendance, up to $25,000 per year, for eligible students attending nonprofit, regionally accredited public universities and colleges. The program will be available in six states: Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Iowa, Nevada and Utah.

Scholarship recipients receive mentorship, academic counseling, leadership development and ongoing personal and professional support. Since 2007, the foundation has awarded more than $7 million to help underserved students achieve their academic goals.

"We are excited to expand our reach and continue supporting students across the West and Midwest. This program provides not only financial assistance, but holistic support to help students succeed in the classroom and life," said Crystal Maggelet, founder of the Call to Action Foundation and CEO of Maverik and FJ Management Inc.

The scholarship program launched Jan. 1, with applications due by 5 p.m. MT Feb. 21.
