Support First-Gen College Students at BSF

Support the Next Generation of College Graduates with the Betancourt Scholarship Fund (BSF)

The Betancourt Scholarship Fund (BSF) is dedicated to empowering Colonial High School seniors who dream of a college education but face financial barriers. Our mission is simple: to provide a cash award to graduating seniors who will begin their journey in a four-year college program.

As of January 2019, the BSF is a proud 501(c)(3) Florida-registered non-profit, meaning your donations are tax-deductible and you will receive an official receipt for your generous contribution via PayPal.

Why Your Support Matters

This scholarship is uniquely targeted toward first-generation college students—those who will be the first in their family to attend college. With a GPA of 3.0 or higher, these students from Colonial High School in Orlando, FL, will graduate in May 2025, ready to take the next step toward their future. However, many need financial support to make their college dream a reality.

By donating to the Betancourt Scholarship Fund, you are directly investing in a student's future. Your contribution will help them navigate their first semester of college and set them on a path to success. As a token of our gratitude, your name will be proudly displayed on the scholarship’s website, showcasing your impact on this important cause.

How You Can Help

We believe every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference. Whether it's $5 or $500, your generosity can change a student's life. Together, we can lift the financial burden for these aspiring college students and help them focus on achieving their academic dreams.

The Betancourt Scholarship Fund thanks you in advance for your kindness and support. Your contribution will truly make a difference.
