Ideal Applicant

An individual student or a small local scholarship applicant with a clear connection to Idaho (or nearby Utah) seeking modest education-related support.

Good Fit

  • Applicant is a student seeking a scholarship or small education award.
  • Applicant has a clear local tie to Idaho or the surrounding region.
  • Application can be submitted via the foundation's mail/phone contact and follows the foundation's brief documentation expectations.
  • Request size is modest (on the order of $1,000).

Geography

Moderate

Observed grants are concentrated in the foundation's home state of Idaho (about 67% of dollars) with a smaller share to Utah, spanning two states rather than a national footprint.

Recipient Variety

Restrictive

The latest year shows only three distinct recipients, all individual educational scholarship awards; two recipients recurred from the prior year, indicating a small, narrow recipient set.

New Applicants

Moderate

Direct turnover evidence is limited to two years, but one new recipient was funded in the latest year and the foundation provides application instructions and a mailing/phone contact, so new entrants appear plausible though selection seems selective and relationship-aware.
